DHS holds a public forum annually to provide the public with an opportunity to comment on the progress of the 1115 SUD System Reform Demonstration. The demonstration seeks to create an outcome-driven continuum of care aligned with American Society of Addiction Medicine Criteria, and expand state Medical Assistance coverage to Institutions for Mental Diseases. 

There are three components to the virtual public forum process:

  1. Submit comments, questions, or topics of interest via Snap Survey by noon on Friday, Jan. 7, 2022.
  2. Comments, questions, and topics submitted before noon on Friday, Jan. 7, 2022, will be incorporated into a presentation at the beginning of the public forum on Jan. 20, 2022.
  3. After the presentation, the forum will be opened to additional questions in the time available.
