What it does
Maine's annual firearm report includes counts of certain medical risk assessments and people referred for mental health care. It also includes group-level demographic information that can be released without risking anyone's identification.
Argument forAssessment and referral counts could help readers understand how often people assessed are referred for mental health care.
Argument againstReferral counts could give readers an incomplete picture of access to care because they do not show whether people received treatment.
More detail
The annual report on firearm deaths and hospitalizations must include counts of certain medical risk assessments and people referred for mental health care. The counts cover assessments by medical practitioners under Title 34-B, section 3862-A, and assessed people who received referrals for mental health treatment and services. Demographic information can be included only as group-level data that can be released without risking identification of individuals.
