AI Summary
This bill directs the Oregon Health Authority (OHA) to conduct a comprehensive study focusing on behavioral health services and supports specifically for older adults and individuals with disabilities. The study aims to examine the current state of mental health and support services for these populations and will require OHA to submit a detailed report to the interim health-related committees of the Legislative Assembly by September 15, 2026. The report may include legislative recommendations to improve behavioral health services. The bill includes a sunset provision, meaning the study mandate will automatically be repealed on January 2, 2027, effectively making this a time-limited research initiative. By requiring this study, the bill seeks to gather important insights that could potentially inform future policy decisions and improvements in behavioral health services for vulnerable populations in Oregon.
