Section 820.4 - Assignment of services

(a) Programs will be certified for a maximum number of beds for a certified capacity. The level of care is attributed to the patient based on a patient-centered assessment and the OASAS level of care for alcohol and drug treatment referral protocol based on individual risk and resources. Programs will be certified pursuant to Part 810 of this Title for residential services and will have noted on the operating certificate each of the services (stabilization, rehabilitative and/or reintegration) approved for delivery at the certified residential site.

(b) Bed distribution will be determined by patient population demand. At any given time, the bed type is defined by the element of care to which the patient has been assigned. Distribution of bed types will not be fixed; however, the program must meet OASAS reporting requirements for transitions from one element of care to the next.

(c) All programs must submit an application with specific staffing structure, treatment approach, and other policies and procedures as requested by the Office for each element of residential services the program intends to provide. Upon approval of the application the service to be provided will be approved and designated on the residential program's operating certificate.
