ARM 24.174.1603. PROTOCOL FOR SELF-REPORTING TO A PROFESSIONAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM

(1) If a licensee or license applicant chooses to self-report to the assistance program, and the program has determined that the licensee or license applicant needs assistance or supervision, the licensee or license applicant shall be required to: (a) enter into a contractual agreement with the medical assistance program for the specified length of time determined by the medical assistance program; and (b) abide by all the requirements set forth by the medical assistance program. (2) Self-reporting by a licensee or license applicant may still result in disciplinary action by the board if: (a) the medical assistance program determines that the self-reporting licensee or license applicant poses a danger to themselves or to the public; (b) the licensee or license applicant is noncompliant with a contractual agreement with the medical assistance program; (c) the licensee or license applicant has not completed evaluation, treatment, or aftercare monitoring as recommended by the medical assistance program; or (d) the screening panel otherwise determines that disciplinary action is warranted. (3) The program shall notify and disclose to the board the identity of a new license applicant who is determined by the program to have significant impairment issues.
