Cal or Healthy San Francisco; to establish an Office of Private Insurance Accountability to advocate
on behalf of privately insured individuals not receiving timely and appropriate mental health care
under their private insurance; to provide that Mental Health SF shall not become operative until either
the City's budget has exceeded the prior year's budget by 13%, or the voters have approved a tax that
will sufficiently finance the program, or the Board of Supervisors has approved by a two-thirds vote
the appropriation of general funds to finance the program; and to establish the Mental Health SF
Implementation Working Group to advice the Mental Health Board, the Department of Public Health,
