RE: LSA Document #07-875 – Private Mental Health Institutions rule
Dear Representative Pelath:
On behalf of the Division of Mental Health and Addiction, I am submitting this notice to the Administrative Rules Oversight Committee in compliance withIC 4-22-2-25 , because the promulgation of the captioned rule may not be completed within one year after publication of the notice of intent to adopt a rule.
The Division published its notice of intent to adopt a rule for the captioned document on December 19, 2007. The drafting of the rule took longer than expected as a result of the Division's reviewing the drafts of the rule with stakeholders, including the providers and patient advocacy groups. A proposed rule was published in the Indiana Register on May 28, 2008. A public hearing was held on June 20, 2008.
Following the public hearing, the agency must obtain approval of the final rule from the Office of the Attorney General and from the Governor. The agency expects that the rule can be approved by the Governor by June 1, 2009.
This notice setting forth the expected date of approval of LSA Document #07-875 as June 1, 2009, is being submitted in a timely manner. August 25, 2008, is the two hundred fiftieth day after publication of the Notice of Intent to Adopt a Rule.
Sincerely,
Barbara A. NardiOffice of General CounselFamily and Social Services Administration
