Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

7 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 2 costs, 3 mixed.

Health providers gain psilocybin service options

Beginning January 1, 2026, qualifying health professionals with psilocybin facilitator licenses can combine preparation and follow-up sessions with health services. They cannot provide health services during a psilocybin administration session. State agencies cannot discipline providers for discussing services offered by licensed facilitators at licensed centers. Protection for providing psilocybin services requires a facilitator license, compliance with state rules, and no health care during those services.

Psilocybin labels must show product strength

Beginning January 1, 2026, Oregon's psilocybin labeling standards must require product strength information, including psilocin content. Products sold or transferred by licensed service centers must follow these standards. Labels must also include safety warnings, onset time, serving size and count, and contents. The Oregon Health Authority must consider client costs and avoid labeling rules more restrictive than reasonably needed for safety.

Psilocybin workers face stricter background checks

Beginning January 1, 2026, Oregon can require fingerprints from anyone listed on a psilocybin application for state or national background checks. The Oregon Health Authority can deny or restrict licenses when applicants lack approved criminal records checks. It can suspend, restrict, or revoke licenses when licensees or their representatives lack approved checks. It can also deny, refuse to renew, suspend, or revoke permits for applicants or holders without approved checks.

Psilocybin trainers must document course hours

Beginning January 1, 2026, providers seeking approval for psilocybin facilitator courses must submit instructional outlines to the Oregon Health Authority. Outlines must list courses, total instructional hours, theory lecture hours, and practical-skills hours.

Agencies can share protected psilocybin records

For information obtained on or after passage, Oregon's health authority can share relevant confidential records with public entities for regulation or enforcement. Health professional boards can also share qualifying records with the authority; recipients must take reasonable steps to preserve confidentiality. Recipients can use or disclose records as needed for authorized functions, subject to investigation-record safeguards. Law enforcement can request otherwise exempt records, but not records covered by the law's separate confidentiality protection. The authority and health boards cannot use this sharing authority for records about providing or referring reproductive or gender-affirming care.

Psilocybin investigation records get privacy safeguards

The Oregon Health Authority must keep psilocybin investigation records confidential, with exceptions, for information obtained on or after the law's passage. After notice of proposed denial or discipline, disclosure requires clear and convincing evidence that public interest outweighs reasons for nondisclosure. Complainants may receive written summaries, and investigation subjects can request records with complainant identities removed. Privileged information, certain identifying details, and expert reports remain excluded from that access. Certain notices and orders may be public.

Psilocybin client reporting includes privacy choices

Beginning January 1, 2026, licensed psilocybin centers must collect client information, including veteran status, and submit reports every three months. Reports cover the prior three months, including service denials by centers or facilitators and the reasons for denial. Reports must combine data to protect identities. Clients can request that information they provided not be submitted, following Oregon Health Authority rules. The authority can exempt information that cannot be adequately stripped of identifying details.
