A bill for an act relating to alignment of delivery of health and human services programs and services, aging and disability services, and volunteer services, and including applicability and effective date provisions.
This bill creates "Health and Human Services districts" (HHS districts) across Iowa to align the delivery of health, aging, disability, and volunteer services. The Department of Health and Human Services must divide the state into these geographic, multicounty service areas - starting with existing behavioral health districts - and review the boundaries at least every seven years. The districts will guide how services are planned and delivered statewide, with the department developing rules to administer the new system. This primarily affects state agencies and service providers managing health and human services programs.
