Explanation
(This amendment reflects general fund savings to the involuntary mental commitment (IMC) fund as a result of closing the coverage gap consistent with the implementation of Marketplace Virginia. The IMC uses state funds to pay for medical costs of individuals subject to either an emergency custody or temporary detention order. Implementation of Marketplace Virginia will result in a shift of some IMC expenses from the general fund to federal funds.)
