 Any voluntary patient who has recovered, or whose hospitalization
 the chief medical officer of the hospital determines is no longer

 discharged if to do so would in the judgment of the chief medical
 officer contribute to the most effective use of the hospital in the
 care and treatment of that patient and of other persons with mental
 illness.
