135H.10 RULES.
1. The department of inspections and appeals, in consultation
with the department of human services and affected professional
groups, shall adopt and enforce rules setting out the standards for a
psychiatric medical institution for children and the rights of the
residents admitted to a psychiatric institution. The department of
inspections and appeals and the department of human services shall
coordinate the adoption of rules and the enforcement of the rules in
order to prevent duplication of effort by the departments and of
requirements of the licensee.
2. This chapter shall not be construed as prohibiting the use of
funds appropriated for foster care to provide payment to a
psychiatric medical institution for children for the financial
participation required of a child whose foster care placement is in a
psychiatric medical institution for children. In accordance with
established policies and procedures for foster care, the department
of human services shall act to recover any such payment for financial
participation, apply to be named payee for the child's unearned
income, and recommend parental liability for the costs of a
court-ordered foster care placement in a psychiatric medical
institution.
3. Except for those psychiatric medical institutions for children
which are specialized to provide substance abuse treatment, unless
expressly authorized in statute, the department of human services
shall not include services provided by psychiatric medical
institutions for children in any managed care contract. Section History: Recent Form
