Earlier this month, our Director of Advocacy & Workforce Initiatives joined Tyler Smith at CBHA (Community Behavioral Health Association) and Cyrus Winnett at IPHCA (Illinois Primary Health Care Association) for the Behavioral Health-Primary Care Collaborative Learning Event.
We shared state and federal policy updates from FY25, as well as what advocacy focuses the sector can expect from these groups during the upcoming Veto and FY26 legislative sessions.
Attendees discussed a myriad of issues, including temporary licensure access for therapists, the 988 surcharge and CESSA, the Medicaid rate increase and the Budget Reconciliation Bill (HR1), and more.
You can see the presentations from this event here.
