Section 124962
Status: in_force

The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:

(a) Nonpharmacological therapies for pain management have been proven effective for treatment of chronic pain and their use should be promoted just as are pharmacological analgesic therapies.

(b) The United States Department of Health and Human Services’ Pain Management Best Practices Inter-Agency Task Force identified barriers to accessing nonpharmacological therapies for pain management related to health care providers that include underestimation of patients’ reported level of pain, including unconscious biases, workforce shortages, especially among behavioral and pain management specialists, lack of research on or lack of awareness of novel and effective approaches to pain care, and cost and reimbursement issues specific to the health care system. For patients, cost, time, and transportation barriers, as well as lack of coverage or lack of knowledge and awareness of nonpharmacological options have been identified.

(c) A multimodal and patient-centered approach to treating and managing acute or chronic pain has been recommended by the task force.

(d) Restorative, interventional, behavioral, complementary, and integrative health approaches have been identified as nonpharmacological therapies for pain management.

(e) The federal Food and Drug Administration has approved behavioral or instrument-based and nonpharmacological immersive therapeutics indicated to manage or treat pain.

(f) “Nonpharmacological pain management treatment” is pain management treatment without the use of medication, including behavioral therapy, instrument-based therapy, or immersive therapeutics approved by the federal Food and Drug Administration indicated for the use of managing or treating pain.

(g) Medical devices are an important option for the treatment and management of pain and prevention of opioid use disorders. With a shift in how pain is treated, there is a greater need for ensuring appropriate coverage and payment policies for effective emerging technologies.

(h) The health care system, including health care providers, health care service plans, and health insurers, should encourage the use of evidence-based nonpharmacological therapies for pain management.

(a)  The Legislature hereby finds and declares all of the following:

(1)  California’s energy efficiency standards for new residential buildings have provided significant savings to homeowners and renters.

(2)  As a result of past federal preemption of the field and the exemption of manufactured homes from building standards under California law, California’s energy efficiency residential building standards have not been applied to manufactured housing.

(3)  The Energy Policy Act of 1992 (P.L. 102-486) authorizes the Secretary of the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development to adopt regulations establishing thermal insulation and energy efficiency standards for manufactured housing. If the secretary has not issued, within one year after October 24, 1992, the date of the enactment of the act, final regulations that establish standards that take effect before January 1, 1995, states may establish specified energy efficiency standards for manufactured housing.

(4)  The 1992–93 California Energy Plan, endorsed by the Governor, recommends that the federal government adopt significantly more stringent, cost-effective energy efficiency standards for manufactured housing, or, in the alternative, allow states to adopt these standards.

(5)  It is in the interest of this state to participate in any federal rulemaking proceeding establishing energy efficiency standards for manufactured housing, and, in the absence of timely final federal regulations, it is in the interest of this state to adopt its own energy efficiency standards for manufactured housing as authorized under federal law.

(b)  The Department of Housing and Community Development, in consultation with the State Energy Resources Conservation and Development Commission, shall develop and implement cost-effective energy efficiency standards for manufactured housing, to take effect before January 1, 1995. These standards shall include, but are not limited to, lighting, insulation, climate control systems, and other design and construction features that increase efficiency in energy use for manufactured housing. The standards shall be cost-effective when taken in their entirety, and when amortized over the economic life of the structure. The department shall have responsibility for enforcing the standards. The standards shall be developed in consultation with members of the manufactured housing industry.

(c)  This section shall become operative only if the Secretary of the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development does not issue, on or before October 24, 1993, final regulations that establish thermal insulation and energy efficiency standards for manufactured housing that take effect before January 1, 1995. If the secretary does issue those final regulations, this section shall remain in effect only until January 1, 1995, and as of that date is repealed, unless a later enacted statute, which is enacted before January 1, 1995, deletes or extends that date.
