APA WF# 24-24 MAT Clarification - The Oklahoma Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services (ODMHSAS) has requested an emergency rule change to obtain compliance with the new changes to 42 CFR § 8.12. The new federal requirements state that a patient's refusal of counseling shall not preclude them from receiving MAT. OHCA policy will be amended to reflect this change—noting that a patient's refusal to participate in the treatment phases as described in 317:30-5-241.7(f)(1) through 317:30-5-241.7(f)(5) shall not preclude the individual from receiving medications from the opioid treatment program (OTP).
