Summary
A new Subsection R156-37-102(5) is added to define "SBIRT training" in reference to the definition of "SBIRT" in Section 58-37-6.5, the "Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment approach used by the federal Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration." This proposed amendment is made because Subsection 58-37-6.5(1)(e), enacted by H.B. 175 (2017), allows the Division to either promulgate a definition of "SBIRT" by rule, or to use the federal Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) definition. By incorporating the federal SAMHSA definition, the Division is choosing it for the SBIRT training requirements. Section R156-37-402 is amended to refer to the new SBIRT training requirements enacted in Subsection 58-67-6.5(2)(b), and provides that the approved SBIRT training satisfies the Division's continuing education requirements for license renewal and shall be posted on the Division's website at https://dopl.utah.gov/. Sections R156-37-502, R156-37-601, and R156-37-602 are amended to make nonsubstantive formatting changes for better comprehension.
