Revises provisions relating to child welfare. (BDR 38-15)
SB 187 requires child welfare agencies to make decisions about non-emergency medical or mental health care for children in their custody within 14 days of receiving a provider's recommendation. The bill mandates agencies to seek consent from required parties (such as parents or courts) within this timeframe and immediately notify the child's placement location about all decisions. It directly affects children under child welfare custody who need medical treatment. The law establishes clear deadlines to prevent delays in accessing necessary care while maintaining required consent processes.
