HB 996 / SB 911 – Psychologists Prescribing Bill

HB996 by Rep. Brock Martin (R-Huntington) would create prescribing authority for certain psychologists if certain conditions are met.  On March 26, 2025, the Health subcommittee heard testimony from both sides of the issue, and after much discussion, Rep. Ryan Williams suggested sending this bill to summer study to research and collaborate on the issue moving forward. The bill did NOT advance this year, but it could resurface next legislative session.

Thanks For Support of HB 654/SB 437

The Collaborative Care Model bill sponsored by Rep. Tim Hicks (R-Gray) unanimously passed on the House Floor and the Senate and was signed by Governor Lee as legislation to increase coverage of psychiatric provider expertise in the treatment of patients in primary care settings.  

THANK  your Senators and House Representatives.  

Be looking for fours networking meetings this year to help get the word out about this bill and get Primary Care Physicians using this model.
