CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE— 2023–2024 REGULAR SESSION

Assembly Bill

No. 1282

---

Introduced by Assembly Member Lowenthal

February 16, 2023

---

An act to amend Section 4091 of the Welfare and Institutions Code, relating to mental health.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

AB 1282, as introduced, Lowenthal. Mental health programs: standards: delegation.

Existing law requires the State Department of Health Care Services to establish standards for specified mental health programs and to apply those standards to any facility licensed as a social rehabilitation facility. Under existing law, this requirement, however, does not limit the authority of the department to delegate the evaluation and enforcement of the program standards to a county mental health program if a licensed social rehabilitation facility has a contractual relationship with a county mental health program and the county has requested the delegation.

This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to that latter provision governing delegation.
