Resolve, Directing The Department Of Health And Human Services To Amend Mainecare Rules Governing Certain Types Of Behavioral And Mental Health Services And To Form A Stakeholder Group To Study Methods For Improving Those Services

This legislative amendment removes specific sections from a bill that would have directed the Department of Health and Human Services to update MaineCare rules for behavioral and mental health services. By striking out the appropriations and awareness requirements, the amendment effectively eliminates the funding and outreach components of the original proposal. The remaining text of the bill, which calls for forming a stakeholder group to study service improvements, is not affected by this change. Consequently, the bill no longer mandates immediate rule changes or financial allocations for these services.
