Relating to authorizing the Office of Inspector General to promulgate a legislative rule relating to Behavioral Health Centers Licensure
HB 2254 authorizes West Virginia's Office of Inspector General to implement a specific licensing rule for behavioral health centers. The bill formally approves the "Behavioral Health Centers Licensure" rule (71 CSR 25), which was previously modified and refiled after addressing committee concerns. This rule directly affects behavioral health centers seeking or maintaining licensure in West Virginia by establishing their regulatory standards. The bill is procedural, focusing solely on authorizing an existing regulatory rule rather than creating new policy.
