Step 1:
Create a login
- Once a patient has been in the ED for 96 hours, you may submit a 96 hour escalation request to Department of Mental Health (DMH) through the "Secure" email system portal.
- If you haven't already created a login in this system, you first must set up a DMH secure email account in order to submit the supportive or summary documents with your expedited admissions case.
Step 2:
Complete the referral form
- Once you have created a login on the secure email you may fill out the DMH Expedited Admission Referral Form
Step 3:
Sending the referral form
- Once you have completed the referral form and created your login, you can then send the form and any supportive or summary documents email to:expedited.admission@state.ma.us
