This bill mandates that emergency departments in general hospitals provide essential information to parents or guardians of children who arrive experiencing a mental health crisis. Specifically, the emergency department must supply details about care management organizations, including contact information for local organizations that can assist with care management for youth with complex needs and their families.

The bill also includes a definition of a care management organization, describing it as a county-based, nonprofit entity that offers face-to-face care management services. The provisions of this act are set to take effect 90 days after its enactment.
