CO SB037

Creates the Trusted Interoperability Platform Advisory Committee under the Department of Public Safety with 11 members representing state agencies, courts, sheriffs, behavioral health providers, and health information exchanges.

Committee must develop a strategic plan by May 1, 2021 for the Chief Information Officer and submit a final plan by September 1, 2021 to legislative committees for a secure information-sharing platform between criminal and juvenile justice systems and community health agencies.

Strategic plan must enable secure legal information exchange while complying with federal and state law, using identity and access management, federated systems over existing databases, and uniform national standards for criminal justice and health data.

System goals include facilitating interfacing among state agencies, county jails, behavioral health centers, and health information exchanges to improve management and care of individuals in the justice system while reducing recidivism.

Committee members serve without compensation, meet at least four times per year, and the entire advisory committee provision is repealed effective October 1, 2021.
