Senator Michaelson
Jenet, primary bill sponsor, presented House Bill 25-1124. House Bill 22-1278
required the Behavioral Health Administration to work with the Department
of Health Care Policy and Financing, in collaboration with relevant stakeholders
and other state agencies, to develop universal contracting provisions to
be used by state agencies when contracting for behavioral health services.
The bill outlines several requirements for the universal contract.
House Bill 25-1124
removes most of those requirements (except the requirements for minimum
data collection standards and grievance reporting) and limits the use of
the universal contract to behavioral health safety net services. It also
adds an additional requirement that individuals have access to necessary
care within the behavioral health safety net system. The bill also clarifies
that the requirements do not require the expansion of data collection.
