This is something I wanted to look more into, so I decided to start here. Is there specific protocol for tox screens, how often, etc. I only ask because I see different things going on in the community.
At community mental health clinics that take medicaid - I see people wanting tox screens monthly when prescribing a controlled substance
At clinics that take private insurance - I see people getting Klonopin, Adderall, etc without ever being tox'ed, or rarely.
I'm not accusing one population of misusing their scripts or not, just wondering if there were any guidelines/EBM on the issue.
Thanks!
