Proposal - Public Hearings (CR102)
182-550-2531, -2551,
Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, (WSR 17-07-031),
Purpose: The agency is amending WAC 182-550-2531 to strike the
requirement of an agency facility site visit in order to qualify as an
agency-approved acute physical medicine and rehabilitation (PM&R) hospital.
The agency is amending WAC 182-550-2551 as follows: reorganizing the section to
clarify that acute PM&R services may be authorized when all criteria in the
section are met; adding acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (AIDP)
to the list of conditions that qualifies clients for acute PM&R services;
and adding language that says the agency will evaluate requests per WAC
182-501-0165 for acute PM&R services that do not meet the criteria in the
section. The agency also made housekeeping changes to correct information.
