This amendment adds language authorizing the promulgation of licensing regulations by the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services, upon approval of the 2020 General Assembly, to support the realignment of behavioral health services to ensure the licensing system supports evidence-based, trauma-information, prevention-focused and cost-effective services for individuals served across the lifespan. These actions will support those being undertaken to realign behavioral health services funded through the Virginia Medicaid program and contained in a companion amendment in Item 303. This is a recommendation of the Joint Subcommittee Studying Mental Health Services in the Commonwealth in the 21st Century.
