Behavioral health redesign-vulnerable adults.
This bill amends Wyoming's definition of "Adults with severe mental illness" to explicitly include "vulnerable adults" as defined in state law, effective July 1, 2024. It expands eligibility for behavioral health services to cover vulnerable adults - those at risk of harm due to mental health conditions - until June 30, 2026. The change applies directly to individuals receiving mental health treatment or case management under Wyoming's behavioral health system. The bill does not create new programs but adjusts existing service definitions with a temporary sunset provision.
