30:7B-4.  After-care or supervision;  investigation;  standards of care and  treatment
     ARTICLE IV

     (a) Whenever, pursuant to the laws of the State in which a patient is physically present, it shall be determined that the patient should receive after-care or supervision, such care or supervision may be provided in a receiving State.  If the medical or other appropriate clinical authorities having responsibility for the care and treatment of the patient in the sending State shall have reason to believe that after-care in another State would be in  the best interest of the patient and would not jeopardize the public safety,  they shall request the appropriate authorities in the receiving State to  investigate the desirability of affording the patient such after-care in said  receiving State, and such investigation shall be made with all reasonable  speed.  The request for investigation shall be accompanied by complete  information concerning the patient's intended place of residence and the  identity of the person in whose charge it is proposed to place the patient, the  complete medical history of the patient, and such other documents as may be  pertinent.

    (b) If the medical or other appropriate clinical authorities having responsibility for the care and treatment of the patient in the sending State and the appropriate authorities in the receiving State find that the best interest of the patient would be served thereby, and if the public safety would  not be jeopardized thereby, the patient may receive after-care or supervision  in the receiving State.

    (c) In supervising, treating, or caring for a patient on after-care pursuant  to the terms of this article, a receiving State shall employ the same standards  of visitation, examination, care, and treatment that it employs for similar  local patients.
