Mental health bill strains Huron County finances in Ohio
Norwalk Ohio Huron County faces a budget squeeze as a new law grants mentally ill patients rights to counsel and hearings at state expense but with no state funding appropriated. Judge Heydinger warns annual costs around 12,000 plus attorney fees for evaluations and transport, prompting potential 1977 county funding. He notes 27 recent evaluations and outlines the rights and ongoing hearings required under the law. He cites the burden on Seneca County as the hospital hub and warns repeated hearings may hinder treatment while praising the rights provisions.
