(1) A primary diagnosis from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-V) with the exception of V-codes, adjustment disorders, and substance abuse-related disorders, accompanied by a detailed description of the symptoms supporting the diagnosis. Members eighteen (18) to twenty (20) years of age may have a diagnosis of any personality disorder. Adjustment or substance-related disorders may be a secondary diagnosis;

(2) The current functional level of the individual;

(3) Treatment goals and measurable, time-limited objectives;

(4) Any orders for psychotropic medications, treatments, restorative and rehabilitative services, activities, therapies, social services, diet, and special procedures recommended for the health and safety of the member;

(5) Plans for continuing care, including review and modification to the IPC; and

(6) Plan for discharge, all of which is developed to improve the member's condition to the extent that the inpatient care is no longer necessary.

(1) Must be based on a diagnostic evaluation that includes examination of the medical, psychological, social, behavioral, and developmental aspects of the individual member and reflects the need for inpatient psychiatric care;

(2) Must be developed by a team of professionals in consultation with the member, his or her parents or legal guardians [for members under the age of eighteen (18)], or others in whose care he or she will be released after discharge. This team must consist of professionals as specified below:

(3) Must establish treatment goals that are general outcome statements and reflective of informed choices of the member served. Additionally, the treatment goals must be appropriate to the member's age, culture, strengths, needs, abilities, preferences, and limitations;

(4) Must establish measurable and time-limited treatment objectives that reflect the expectations of the member served and parents/legal guardians (when applicable), as well as being age, developmentally, and culturally appropriate. When modifications are being made to accommodate age, developmental level, or a cultural issue, the documentation must be reflected on the IPC. The treatment objectives must be achievable and understandable to the member and the parents/legal guardians (when applicable). The treatment objectives also must be appropriate to the treatment setting and list the frequency of the service;

(5) Must prescribe an integrated program of therapies, activities, and experiences designed to meet the objectives;

(6) Must include specific discharge and aftercare plans that are appropriate to the member's needs and effective on the day of discharge. At the time of discharge, aftercare plans will include referral to medication management, outpatient behavioral health counseling, and case management, to include the specific appointment date(s), names, and addresses of service provider(s) and related community services to ensure continuity of care and reintegration for the member into his or her family, school, and community;

(7) Must be reviewed, at a minimum, every nine (9) calendar days for members admitted to Acute; every fourteen (14) calendar days for members admitted to Acute II or non-specialty PRTF; every twenty-one (21) calendar days for members admitted to an OHCA-approved longer-term treatment program or specialty Acute II or PRTF. Review must be undertaken by the appropriate team specified in OAC 317:30-5-95.33(b)(2), above, to determine that services being provided are or were required on an inpatient basis, and to recommend changes in the IPC as indicated by the member's overall adjustment, progress, symptoms, behavior, and response to treatment;

(8) Development and review must satisfy the utilization control requirements for recertification [42 C.F.R. §§ 456.60(b), 456.160(b), and 456.360(b)] , and establishment and periodic review of the IPC (42 C.F.R. §§ 456.80, 456.180, and 456.380); and,

(9) Each IPC and IPC review must be clearly identified as such and be signed and dated individually by the member, parents/legal guardians [for members under the age of eighteen (18)], and required team members.

(10) Medically necessary Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnostic and Treatment (EPSDT) services shall be provided to members, under the age of twenty-one (21), who are residing in an inpatient psychiatric facility, regardless of whether such services are listed on the IPC. Reimbursement for the provision of medically necessary EPSDT services to individuals under age twenty-one (21), while the member is residing in an inpatient psychiatric facility, will be provided in accordance with the Oklahoma Medicaid State Plan.
