Bill overview
This bill establishes a two-year pilot program for 24-hour urgent care focused on behavioral health. The program will operate at select hospital urgent care facilities, partnering with managed care organizations to provide stabilized care for individuals experiencing behavioral health crises. It aims to reduce unnecessary emergency department and inpatient admissions by integrating behavioral health services with existing physical health care. The program will utilize a value-based payment system to assess its effectiveness and potential for long-term implementation.
