Bill Summary

The statement includes a measure digest written in compliance with applicable readability standards. Digest: The Act tells OHA to study mental health. (Flesch Readability Score: 82.3).

Directs the authority to submit findings to the interim committees of the Legislative Assembly related to health not later than September 15, 2026. Sunsets on January 2, 2027.

AI Summary

This bill directs the Oregon Health Authority (OHA) to conduct a comprehensive study on mental health and requires the agency to submit a report to the interim legislative committees responsible for health matters by September 15, 2026. The report must be prepared according to ORS 192.245, a state statute governing the format and submission of legislative reports, and may include legislative recommendations for future action. The bill includes a sunset provision that automatically repeals the study requirement on January 2, 2027, effectively making this a time-limited directive for the OHA to investigate and potentially propose improvements to mental health services or policies in Oregon. The bill is concise, focusing solely on establishing this study and providing a clear timeline for its completion and expiration.
