An Act relative to the organization of EOHHS

HD 405 establishes a 11-member special commission to study the organizational structure and effectiveness of Massachusetts' Executive Office of Health and Human Services (EOHHS). The commission will evaluate current staffing, administrative processes, and whether dividing EOHHS into smaller agencies would improve service delivery. Members include the health and human services secretary, legislative appointees, and experts in public health, private healthcare, and social services administration. The commission must submit findings and recommendations to legislative committees by October 1, 2026. This bill does not make policy changes but directs a review of EOHHS' operational structure.
