KNOW YOUR RIGHTS
People getting care for drug or
alcohol use have the same rights as people getting care for any other medical
issue. Addiction treatment facilities licensed by the Massachusetts Department
of Public Health (DPH) have to follow a set of rules. Some examples include:
You must sign a consent form for treatment
You can NOT be denied treatment because you are on
a prescribed medication
Programs that provide any type of residential service
You can read the full list of regulations here:
mass.gov/eohhs/docs/dph/regs/105cmr164.pdf
If you believe your rights have
been violated, you have been harmed by a provider or treatment facility, or
have received care not up to current quality standards: you should report this
immediately to MA DPH. To file a report, call the confidential complaint line:
