APA WF# 24-30 Updates to Residential Substance Use Disorder

These proposed policy changes are being promulgated as Permanent Rules.

OHCA, on behalf of the Oklahoma Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services (ODMHSAS) proposes rules to modify residential substance use disorder (SUD) policies. Currently, American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) level 3.7 requires physician supervision. This update will allow for RN supervision and add licensed independent practitioners (physician, Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN), and Physician Assistant (PA)) as providers of this level of care which includes medically supervised withdrawal and administering assessments. Additional changes clarify the time frame for assessments and progress notes, when service plans and reviews are valid, and the requirements for signature.
