Summary

The bill amends Colorado law to replace the term “acute treatment unit” with “behavioral health entity” when describing facilities that may receive emergency medication kits from registered prescription drug outlets. This aligns the language with existing behavioral health licensing. The change takes effect after a 90‑day period following the legislature’s adjournment, unless a referendum blocks it.
