Section 05.02.01.225 - PROVISION OF MEDICAL SERVICES01.Medical Care. Each juvenile offender must be provided with medical, dental, optical, mental health, emergency or any other related health services while in the Provider's care. Each Provider must have access, on a twenty-four (24) hour basis, to a licensed general hospital, clinic or physician, psychiatrist, and dentist to provide juvenile offenders with professional and qualified physical or mental health services, including medications. Medical and mental health screenings must be provided within two (2) hours of a juvenile offender's admission to a program. Comprehensive and professional medical and mental health assessments must be provided by the Provider within thirty (30) calendar days of admission, unless these are provided by the Department. A copy of these assessments must be forwarded to the Department's regional R.N.02.Medical Consent. As part of the admission process, the Provider must have a copy of the Department's Release of Information and Consent form signed by a juvenile offender's parent, guardian, or committing authority. The consent form must be filed in the juvenile offender's medical file maintained by the Provider.03.Emergency Medical Treatment. In cases of emergency medical treatment requiring signed authorization for juveniles in the custody of the Department, reasonable efforts must be made to obtain the consent of the parent or guardian. The signature of only one (1) parent or guardian is sufficient to form consent or authorization. Should the parent or guardian not be available or refuse to sign, the authorization may be signed by the Department's regional R.N., or designee. This does not restrict the Provider from taking action in life and death situations.04.Reimbursement Sources. The Provider must utilize private insurance or Medicaid, if available, for funding medical, dental, optical, mental health, or related services, and pharmaceutical products for any juvenile offender. The Provider cannot seek reimbursement from private insurance or Medicaid for health services that are the fiscal responsibility of the Provider pursuant to its contract with the Department. Any health services not listed in these rules, other than emergency treatment, which was not approved in advance by the Department's regional R.N., or designee, will be at the expense of the Provider.Idaho Admin.
