Justification for 400?
 

This is an interesting proposal and I am sympathetic. It would be important to justify this particular pass point on the the 200-800 scale, though. Why 400? Why not 475 or 350 or 300? Have any calculations been done to determine what the implications would be for VA applicant pass rates? I am not sure how thoroughly the EPPP people have justified their own pass point of 500, but I worry about potential implications for PSYPACT and licensure mobility for every provider in state if this is applied without a very good and data-driven reason for the change.
