Revises provisions relating to planning for the provision of behavioral health care. (BDR 39-325)
AB 201-82 updates Nevada's behavioral health care system by requiring the Department of Health and Human Services to track spending and cost savings on children's behavioral health services, then recommend reinvesting savings into that system. It mandates regional behavioral health boards to advise child services divisions and submit annual reports to both the Department and child services, while directing mental health consortia to submit strategic plans directly to the Division of Child and Family Services. The bill also clarifies that facilities providing behavioral health care must be licensed under state health regulations and directs a legislative committee to study creating a comprehensive state plan for behavioral health services. These changes primarily affect state agencies, regional boards, and mental health consortia managing child and youth behavioral health care.
