(1) You must complete a substance use disorder assessment when we have information that indicates you may have a substance use disorder unless you have good cause.
(2) You must participate in substance use treatment if a certified substance use disorder professional indicates a need for treatment, unless you have good cause. Good cause includes, but is not limited to, the following reasons:
(a) We determine that your physical or mental
health impairment prevents you from participating in treatment.
(b) The outpatient substance use disorder
treatment you need isn't available in the county where you live.
(c) The inpatient substance use disorder
treatment you need isn't available at a location you can reasonably
access.
(d) You are a parent or
other relative personally providing care for a minor child or an incapacitated
individual living in your household, child care or day care is necessary for
you to participate in substance use disorder treatment, and such care is not
available.
(3) If you refuse or do not complete an assessment or treatment without good cause, your HEN referral eligibility will end until you provide proof you are pursuing an assessment or treatment as required.
