HB 2310 - DIGEST

Establishes the current expanded community services program as a permanent program in the department of social and health services aging and disability services administration.

Requires the department to determine the appropriate individuals who may participate in the expanded community services program. To the extent of available funding, the individuals who shall be served by the program include those that have been diagnosed with traumatic brain injury and do not have an accompanying mental disorder that requires active psychiatric treatment at an inpatient hospital level of care.

Requires the program to provide enhanced community residential support services and personal care for people whose treatment needs constitute substantial barriers to community placement, and who no longer require active psychiatric treatment in an inpatient hospital setting.

Provides that the act shall be null and void if appropriations are not approved.
