HB 1220STATE · ColoradoIntroduced

Update Behavioral Health License Terminology

Current law includes an incorrect reference to an 'acute treatment unit', which license type was condensed into the license for behavioral health entities in 2019. The act updates the terminology from 'acute treatment unit' to 'behavioral health entity' to conform with existing license types.(Note: This summary applies to this bill as enacted.)
