Plain-language change summary

In the updated version of Senate Bill 875, the wording for referencing the statewide telepsychiatry program has been clarified by removing an earlier format that included a specific designation. This change emphasizes the focus on the program itself rather than the procedural details of the bill’s drafting. This matters because it streamlines the language, making it easier for lawmakers and the public to understand the program's purpose and importance in enhancing mental health services in North Carolina.
