This bill requires the Department of Health Services to request supplemental funding from the Joint Committee on Finance, and if received, to contract in fiscal year 2022-23 for a substance use disorder treatment platform that allows for the comparison of the quality of substance use disorder treatment programs. The DHS appropriations may be supplemented after JCF approves a request by DHS for the funding, and JCF is not required to find an emergency to make the supplement.
