Massachusetts Psychiatric Society Raises Concerns on Psychedelics Ballot Question

Massachusetts Psychiatric Society has many outstanding questions regarding the impacts this Initiative Petition would have on providers, including insurance coverage, and the impact to specific population subsets such as maternal or perinatal health.
