ASAM Level 3 Sample Clauses
The ASAM Level 3 clause defines the requirements and standards for providing intensive outpatient substance use disorder treatment services. It typically outlines the necessary staffing, hours of service, and types of therapies or interventions that must be available to meet the ASAM (American Society of Addiction Medicine) Level 3 criteria, such as structured treatment programs with 24-hour support but not full residential care. This clause ensures that service providers meet a recognized standard of care, promoting consistency and quality in treatment while clarifying expectations for both providers and payers.
ASAM Level 3. 1: This is a low-intensity treatment program facilitating the application of recovery skills, relapse prevention, and emotional coping strategies. The main focus is promotion of personal responsibility and reintegration of the individual into the network systems of work, education, and family life. Level 3.1 programs offer a minimum of 5 hours per week of treatment services and 20 hours of structured program to learn life and recovery skills, habilitate and increase motivation.
ASAM Level 3. 5: This is a high-intensity treatment program offering 20 hours per week of evidenced based treatment (MI/CBT) and clinical program to learn life and recovery skills, habilitate and increase motivation. Clients receiving Level 3.5 treatment present with more complex symptoms and require daily clinical services to improve the ability to structure and organize the tasks of daily living and recovery.
