Pursuant to MGLA c 19, the Dept. of Mental Health fulfills its responsibilities toward mentally ill persons in Massachusetts through a comprehensive program of services and facilities. (It exercised a similar function for the mentally retarded until 1986, when a separate Dept. of Mental Retardation was established.) In the 1970s a Quality of Care Review Team, comprised of representatives from various divisions of the department, was established to develop, coordinate, evaluate, and monitor mental health and retardation services in Massachusetts. Quality of Care Review Team subject files were created by members of the team (and members of the central office of the Dept. of Mental Health) in carrying out team responsibilities.
