I would have the same questions.
2:43:53
So what are you doing to standardize?
2:43:55
What what's the next step after this hearing to try to standardize some of this data?
2:43:59
Because, obviously, with all due respect, you don't have much data today.
Laquisha Grant
2:44:06
We published a lot of data on the OCMH's webpage for BEHARD data spanning from the start of the program through the end of FY 24.
2:44:16
We'll continue to report data there and make data available on that webpage, and we are committed to releasing data in a timely manner.
Gale Brewer
2:44:29
Okay.
2:44:29
Does it also go to the open data platform?
2:44:33
No.
2:44:33
That's a good question.
2:44:35
That's my bill.
Laquisha Grant
2:44:36
Okay.
2:44:37
We will find out.
