Section 388-877B-0250. Substance use disorder residential treatment services requiring program-specific certification—Intensive inpatient services.  


Latest version.
  • Intensive inpatient services are substance use disorder residential treatment services that provide a concentrated program of individual and group counseling, education, and activities for a detoxified individual and the individual's family to address overall functioning and to demonstrate aspects of recovery lifestyle. Intensive inpatient services require program-specific certification by the department's division of behavioral health and recovery. An agency providing intensive inpatient services must:
    (1) Complete the individual service plan within five days of admission.
    (2) Conduct and document at least weekly, one face-to-face individual substance use disorder counseling session with the individual.
    (3) Document progress notes in a timely manner and before any subsequent scheduled appointments of the same type of service session or group type occur, or documentation as to why this did not occur. Progress notes must include the date, time, duration, participant names, and a brief summary of the session and the name of the staff member who provided it.
    (4) Document at least weekly, an individual service plan review which determines continued stay needs and progress towards goals.
    (5) Provide a minimum of twenty hours of treatment services each week to each individual. At least ten hours of these services must be substance use disorder counseling. The agency may provide an individual up to ten hours of education each week to meet the minimum requirements.
