This section governs Intensive Behavioral Health Services (IBHS) agencies providing individual services to children, youth, and young adults. It requires that individual services be delivered pursuant to a written order and that the agency obtain written consent from the youth, young adult, or parent/legal guardian prior to initiating those services. Compliance staff should ensure both the written order and consent documentation are in place before services begin.
