Explanation

(This amendment eliminates the proposed supplemental payment program to incentivize private hospitals to increase their Temporary Detention Order admissions. The methodology to implement such a program may not have the intended effect and also requires the hospitals to use their funding for the state share. A companion amendment in the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services funds pilot projects to more quickly divert TDO admissions and relieve the census pressure on state hospitals.)
