Under existing law, a licensed health care provider who is authorized by law to prescribe an opioid antagonist may issue standing orders for the distribution of an opioid antagonist to a person at risk of an opioid-related overdose or to a family member, friend, or other person in a position to assist a person at risk of an opioid-related overdose. Existing law exempts a health care provider who acts with reasonable care in issuing a prescription or order for an opioid antagonist from professional review, civil action, or criminal prosecution, under certain circumstances. Existing law requires that a person who receives an opioid antagonist pursuant to a standing order or otherwise possesses an opioid antagonist receive training, as specified. Existing law provides that a person who is trained in the use of an opioid antagonist and acts with reasonable care
and in good faith is not subject to professional review, liable in a civil action, or subject to criminal prosecution.
</html:p>
<html:p>This bill would expand the above-described authorizations to those who are at risk of or any person who may be in a position to assist a person experiencing any overdose and would strike the requirement that those who receive and possess opioid antagonists receive training. The bill would authorize a person in a position to assist a person at risk of an overdose to possess an opioid antagonist and subsequently dispense or distribute an opioid antagonist to a person at risk of an overdose or another person in a position to assist a person at risk of an overdose. The bill would instead exempt a person who administers an opioid antagonist in good faith, whether or not they were trained, from liability for civil damages, as specified, and would instead exempt a health care provider who acts with reasonable care from liability in a civil action for any
injuries or damages relating to or resulting from the acts or omissions of any person who administers the opioid antagonist in good faith, as specified.</html:p>
<html:p>
(2)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
Existing law imposes a drug program fee for each separate controlled substance offense, as specified, to be deposited by the county treasurer in a drug program fund. Existing law requires that a portion of the fund be allocated to primary prevention programs in the community.
</html:p>
<html:p>This bill would state that primary prevention programs may include those activities aligned with evidence-based best practices, as specified.</html:p>
<html:p>
(3)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
Existing law requires the State Department of Health Care Services to license and regulate facilities that provide residential nonmedical services to adults who are recovering from problems related to alcohol, drug, or alcohol and drug misuse or abuse, and who need
alcohol, drug, or alcohol and drug recovery treatment or detoxification services. Existing law authorizes a licensed alcohol or other drug recovery or treatment facility to permit incidental medical services, as defined, to be provided to a resident at the facility premises by a licensed physician and surgeon or other health care practitioner under specified limited circumstances, including that the resident has signed an admission agreement. Existing law requires a licensee to develop a plan to address when a resident relapses, including when a resident is on the licensed premises after consuming alcohol or using illicit drugs.
</html:p>
<html:p>This bill would require the department, on or before January 1, 2027, to offer a combined application for entities seeking licensure as an alcohol or other drug recovery or treatment facility and to provide incidental medical services, as defined. The bill would prohibit
the department from requiring an admission agreement to require a person to be abstinent and not intoxicated in order to be admitted to care or continue treatment. The bill would require a licensee to prioritize the individual maintaining some level of connection to treatment, following a relapse.</html:p>
<html:p>

<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
Existing law defines “drug- or alcohol-related program” as any program designed to reduce the unlawful use of, or assist those who engage in the unlawful use of, drugs or alcohol, through various means, such as intervention, treatment, and enforcement, among others. Existing law prohibits the encumbrance of state funds for a drug- or alcohol-related program unless it contains a component that explains that there is no unlawful use of drugs or alcohol and requires all aspects of a drug- or alcohol-related program receiving state funds to be consistent with the “no lawful use” message.
</html:p>
<html:p>This bill would redefine that term to mean any program designed to assist persons with substance use disorders and would strike enforcement from the specified means. The bill would repeal the above-described provisions related to the “no lawful use” message.</html:p>

As used in this section, “incidental medical services” means services that are in compliance with the community standard of practice and are not required to be performed in a licensed clinic or licensed health facility, as defined by Section 1200 or 1250, respectively, to address medical issues associated with either detoxification from alcohol or other drugs or the provision of alcohol or other drug recovery or treatment services, including all of the following categories of services that the department shall further define by regulation:
</html:p>
<html:p>
(1)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
Obtaining medical histories.
</html:p>
<html:p>
(2)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
Monitoring health status to determine
whether the health status warrants transfer of the patient in order to receive urgent or emergent care.
</html:p>

<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
Testing associated with detoxification from alcohol or other drugs.
</html:p>
<html:p>

(6)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>

(b)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
Incidental medical services do not include the provision of general primary medical care.
</html:p>
<html:p>
(c)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
Notwithstanding any other law, a licensed alcohol or other drug recovery or
treatment facility may permit incidental medical services to be provided to a resident at the facility premises by, or under the supervision of, one or more physicians and surgeons licensed by the Medical Board of California or the Osteopathic Medical Board who are knowledgeable about addiction medicine, or one or more other health care practitioners acting within the scope of practice of their license and under the direction of a physician and surgeon, and who are also knowledgeable about addiction medicine, if all of the following conditions are met:
</html:p>
<html:p>
(1)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
The facility, in the judgment of the department, has the ability to comply with the requirements of this chapter and all other applicable laws and regulations to meet the needs of a resident receiving incidental medical services pursuant to this chapter. The department shall specify in
regulations the minimum requirements that a facility shall meet in order to be approved to permit the provision of incidental medical services on its premises. The license of a facility approved to permit the provision of incidental medical services shall reflect that those services are permitted at the facility premises.
</html:p>
<html:p>
(2)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
The physician and surgeon and any other health care practitioner has signed an acknowledgment on a form provided by the department that they have been advised of and understand the statutory and regulatory limitations on the services that may legally be provided at a licensed alcohol or other drug recovery or treatment facility and the statutory and regulatory requirements and limitations for the physician and surgeon or other health care practitioner and for the facility, related to providing incidental medical
services. The licensee shall maintain a copy of the signed form at the facility for a physician and surgeon or other health care practitioner providing incidental medical services at the facility premises.
</html:p>
<html:p>
(3)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
A physician and surgeon or other health care practitioner shall assess a resident, prior to that resident receiving incidental medical services, to determine whether it is medically appropriate for that resident to receive these services at the premises of the licensed facility. A copy of the form provided by the department shall be signed by the physician and surgeon and maintained in the resident’s file at the facility.
</html:p>
<html:p>
(4)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
The resident has signed an admission agreement.
</html:p>
<html:p>
(A)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
The admission agreement, at a minimum, shall
describe the incidental medical services that the facility may permit to be provided and shall state that the permitted incidental medical services will be provided by, or under the supervision of, a physician and surgeon.
</html:p>
<html:p>
(B)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
The department shall not require an admission agreement to require a person to have been abstinent, to not be intoxicated, or to otherwise not be under the influence in order to be
admitted into care,
be considered for treatment, or continue treatment.
</html:p>
<html:p>
(C)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
The department shall specify in regulations, at a minimum, the content and manner of providing the admission agreement, and any other information that the department deems appropriate. The facility shall maintain a copy of the signed admission agreement in the resident’s file.
</html:p>
<html:p>
(5)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
Once incidental medical services are initiated for a resident, the physician and surgeon and facility shall monitor the resident to ensure that the resident remains appropriate to receive those services. If the physician and surgeon determines that a change in the resident’s medical condition requires other medical services or that a higher level of care is required, the facility shall immediately arrange for the other medical
services or higher level of care, as appropriate.
</html:p>
<html:p>
(6)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
The facility maintains in its files a copy of the relevant professional license or other written evidence of licensure to practice medicine or perform medical services in the state for the physician and surgeon and any other health care practitioner providing incidental medical services at the facility.
</html:p>
<html:p>
(d)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
The department is not required to evaluate or have any responsibility or liability with respect to evaluating the incidental medical services provided by a physician and surgeon or other health care practitioner at a licensed facility. This section does not limit the department’s ability to report suspected misconduct by a physician and surgeon or other health care practitioner to the appropriate licensing entity or to law
enforcement.
</html:p>
<html:p>
(e)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
A facility licensed and approved by the department to allow provision of incidental medical services shall not by offering approved incidental medical services be deemed a clinic or health facility within the meaning of Section 1200 or 1250, respectively.
</html:p>
<html:p>
(f)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
Other than incidental medical services permitted to be provided or any urgent or emergent care required in the case of a life-threatening emergency, including the administration of naloxone hydrochloride, or any other opioid antagonist that is approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for treatment of an opioid overdose, this section does not authorize the provision at the premises of the facility of any medical or health care services or any other services that require a higher level of care
than the care that may be provided within a licensed alcohol or other drug recovery or treatment facility.
</html:p>
<html:p>
(g)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
This section does not require a residential treatment facility licensed by the department to provide incidental medical services or any services not otherwise permitted by law.
</html:p>
<html:p>
(h)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
(1)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
On or before July 1, 2024, the department shall adopt regulations to implement this section in accordance with the Administrative Procedure Act (Chapter 3.5 (commencing with Section 11340) of Part 1 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code).
</html:p>
<html:p>
(2)

Notwithstanding the rulemaking provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act, the department may, if it deems appropriate, implement, interpret, or make
specific this section by means of provider bulletins, written guidelines, or similar instructions from the department until regulations are adopted.

<ns0:Content>
<html:p>The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:</html:p>
<html:p>
(a)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
The Legislature has established various drug- and alcohol-related programs which provide for education, prevention, intervention, treatment, or enforcement.
</html:p>
<html:p>
(b)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
The Legislature has classified certain substances as controlled substances and has defined the lawful and unlawful use of controlled substances which are commonly referred to as, but not limited to, anabolic steroids, marijuana, and cocaine.
</html:p>
<html:p>
(c)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
The Legislature has classified certain substances as imitation controlled substances which are commonly referred to as, but not limited
to, designer drugs.
</html:p>
<html:p>
(d)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
The Legislature has determined that the possession with the intent to be under the influence, or being under the influence of toluene, or any substance or material containing toluene, or any substance with similar toxic qualities, is unlawful. Some substances or materials containing toluene, or substances with similar toxic qualities are commonly referred to, but not limited to, inhalants such as cement, glue, and paint thinner.
</html:p>
<html:p>
(e)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
The Legislature has determined that the purchase, possession, or use of alcohol by persons under 21 years of age is unlawful.
</html:p>
<html:p>
(f)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
Substance use disorder should be viewed and treated as a health problem, as well as a public safety problem as described in Section
11760.5.
</html:p>
<html:p>
(g)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
Comprehensive prevention and treatment services for
individuals experiencing or recovering from substance use disorders must be medically accurate, culturally congruent, and evidence based.
</html:p>
<html:p>
(h)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
Naloxone, a life-saving opioid antagonist medication used to reverse an opioid overdose, including heroin, fentanyl, and prescription opioid medications, is safe and easy to use, works almost immediately, and is not addictive. Naloxone has very few negative effects, and has no effect if opioids are not in a person’s system.
</html:p>
<html:p>
(i)
<html:span class="EnSpace"/>
With the establishment of the Naloxone Distribution Program and the United States Food and Drug Administration’s approval for over-the-counter, nonprescription use of naloxone for the reversal of an opioid overdose, the Legislature further finds that carrying naloxone provides an extra layer of protection
for those at a higher risk for overdose. Although most professional first responders and emergency departments carry naloxone, they may not arrive in time to reverse an opioid overdose. Anyone can carry naloxone, give it to someone having an overdose, and potentially save a life. Bystanders such as friends, family, non-health care providers, and persons who use drugs can reverse an opioid overdose with naloxone.
