COMMITTED PERSONS WITH SPECIAL NEEDS.

(a) The Health and Human Services Commission, after coordination with the office, shall provide psychiatric services, disability services, and housing for a committed person with an intellectual or developmental disability, a mental illness, or a physical disability that prevents the person from effectively participating in the sex offender treatment program administered by the office.

(b) For a committed person who the office has determined is unable to effectively participate in the sex offender treatment program because the person's mental illness prevents the person from understanding and internalizing the concepts presented by the program's treatment material, the Health and Human Services Commission shall provide inpatient mental health services until the person is able to participate effectively in the sex offender treatment program.

(c) A person who is adjudicated as a sexually violent predator under this chapter and who has a mental illness that prevents the person from effectively participating in a sex offender treatment program presents a substantial risk of serious harm to the person or others for purposes of Chapter 574.

(d) The committing court shall order the payment of reasonable compensation to persons performing a duty or providing a service under this section. The compensation paid shall be assessed as court costs. The Health and Human Services Commission shall pay all court costs associated with this subsection.
