Health: licensing; references to licenses for certain substance use disorder services programs in the prudent purchaser act; modify to include those exempt from licensure. Amends sec. 2 of 1984 PA 233 (MCL 550.52). TIE BAR WITH: HB 5729'26
This bill modifies the Prudent Purchaser Act in Michigan to clarify that substance use disorder treatment programs exempt from licensure are still considered health facilities under the law. The change updates the definition of "health facility" in the statute to explicitly include programs that are either licensed or exempt from licensure under specific public health codes. This adjustment ensures these programs are recognized within the legal framework governing health care provider agreements and purchasing arrangements. The bill is tied to companion legislation HB 5729 and would take effect only if that related bill is also enacted.
