Senate Bill 1449 amends the Health and Safety Code to require the Department of State Health Services (DSHS) to accept, under certain circumstances, an accreditation review from the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities, the Joint Commission, or another national accreditation organization recognized by DSHS for a chemical dependency treatment facility instead of an inspection by DSHS for renewal of a license.
