Recommend: Not require physician/psychiatrist consult for ISPs or Service Authorizations

If a Licensed Mental Health Professional and/or CATP is completing a SUD assessment for SUD services, no need for a psychiatrist or physician to consult and sign off, nor for it to be required to list their name for a service authorization. This can delay service authorizations and getting into treatment. This is also a concern cost wise and staffing wise during work force shortages. As it is already required to provide a multidisciplinary team, their input would be considered.
