regulatory action concerns
 

DBHDS is proposing major regulation changes at the same time that DMAS is proposing BH redesign. These actions occurring at the same time without being in alignment will create additional administrative and financial burdens on providers who are already under resource strain. It will also create inconsistency and inefficiency. Please consider the timing of this initiative so one process can be established to overhaul the regulations while taking into account the BH redesign.
