Relating to removing the Certificate of Need moratorium on opioid treatment facilities
HB 3250 repeals a law (§16B-13-12) that had paused the Certificate of Need requirement for opioid treatment facilities in West Virginia. This bill directly affects opioid treatment providers by removing a temporary moratorium that previously exempted them from needing state approval for new facilities or expansions. The key mechanism is the formal repeal of the moratorium provision, meaning these facilities will now be subject to the standard Certificate of Need review process. The change aims to align opioid treatment facility regulations with other healthcare facilities under state law.
