Relates to former patients interred at present and former state mental health hospital cemeteries

This bill requires New York State to make burial records for former patients interred at state mental health hospital cemeteries available to the public within 30 days of a patient's death. It specifies that records must include name, birth/death dates, burial location, military service details, and family relationships, with no fees charged for access. The bill mandates permanent retention of all burial records and cemetery maps, and requires signs with contact information at each cemetery site. It directly affects families seeking to identify or memorialize deceased relatives buried in these historic facilities, such as Willard Asylum or Kings Park Psychiatric Center. The law also clarifies that burial records are separate from clinical medical records.
