Cal. Health & Safety Code § 11839.1 — Narcotic Treatment Programs is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.

The Legislature finds and declares that it is in the best interests of the health and welfare of the people of this state to coordinate narcotic treatment programs to use narcotic replacement therapy and medication-assisted treatments for substance use disorders in the treatment of addicted persons whose addiction was acquired or supported by the use of a narcotic drug or drugs, not in compliance with a physician and surgeon’s legal prescription, and to establish and enforce minimum requirements for the operation of all these treatment programs in this state.
