Cited regulation codes

California publishes the regulation section cited at each visit, but not the narrative text describing what happened. The codes are the agency's own, republished verbatim; where the state publishes a section title we show it verbatim, and each resolvable code links to the official source, the Title 22 regulations on the CDSS site or the Health and Safety Code on the state legislature site.
