What the bill would do

These points come from the Utah Legislature’s published bill overview.

  • requires certain insurers to offer a single case agreement to allow certain children leaving the custody of the Division of Child and Family Services (division) to receive mental health treatment and services from the mental health therapist providing those services while the child was in the custody of the division;
  • requires the division to, under certain circumstances: determine whether a child entering the custody of the division has a mental health therapist, and facilitate continuity of care for the child with that mental health therapist; and coordinate with a child's parent or guardian or the Department of Health and Human Services when a child leaves the custody of the division to facilitate continuity of care for the child with the therapist that provided mental health treatment and services while the child was in the custody of the department;
  • provides rulemaking authority; and
  • defines terms.
