Medications and Physician Authorizations required
 

In the proposed revision of regulations, physician authorization is required with the following three standards:

60.B.6: Emergency Care Plan for health issue or allergy likely to result in a medical emergency-physician authorization

520.H- long term medication authorization-physician authorization

570.A.2-permission to self-administer-physician authorization

Will the model forms be updated to include all of these instances to eliminate confusing and multiple pages for parents to obtain physician signature?  One form with all options would be a tremendous help to parents who often overlook one or the other and have to make multiple trips to their physician's office.  Easier process for parents also attributes to less complications for facilities to collect accurate paperwork with signatures.
