Notes
SECONDARY SOURCE / NOT INDEPENDENTLY VERIFIED THIS PASS (same access limitations as the longTermCare entry above). California licenses opioid/narcotic treatment programs under 9 CCR Division 4, Chapter 4, which — consistent with the near-universal pattern of states building this into their NTP licensing rule around the federal 42 C.F.R. Part 8 medical-director requirement — is understood to require a physician medical director. A human should confirm current section text before relying on this.
