SF 2338 Iowa Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A bill for an act relating to alignment of delivery of health and human services programs and services, aging and disability services, and volunteer services, and including applicability and effective date provisions.

SF 2338 establishes Health and Human Services Districts (HHS districts) across Iowa to coordinate the delivery of health, human services, aging, disability, and volunteer services. The Department of Health and Human Services will initially use existing behavioral health districts as the foundation for these new districts and must review and adjust boundaries at least every seven years, considering factors like county lines, population served, and areas with high service needs. The bill also defines key terms related to these districts and requires advisory councils to help plan services within each district. This reorganizes service delivery to streamline coordination for residents and providers statewide.
