authorizes the Commissioner of Health to appoint a psychological examiner to establish a pilot psychological autopsy service to support suicide prevention efforts and policy decision-making. The State Department of Health (OSDH) estimates the annual cost for a psychological autopsy examiner at $142,750, including salary, benefits, and related expenses (an appropriation for this). The OKGOP platform states we support sunset laws, zero-based budgeting and performance audits to justify government programs.
