What must a licensee agree to when requesting participation in a diversion program?

To refuse treatment for any substance use issues
To cooperate with the treatment program designed by the committee
To bear no costs related to the program
To complete the program without assistance

The correct answer is: To cooperate with the treatment program designed by the committee

When a licensee requests participation in a diversion program, agreeing to cooperate with the treatment program designed by the committee is essential for several reasons. Firstly, diversion programs are established to assist individuals in addressing issues such as substance use disorders while protecting public health and safety. By agreeing to cooperate, the licensee is committing to an individualized treatment plan that includes assessments, counseling, and potentially rehabilitation services tailored to their specific needs. This collaboration not only aids the individual in their recovery journey but also ensures that they are taking concrete steps to resolve issues that could affect their professional duties. Moreover, the cooperation aspect reinforces accountability. The licensee's willingness to engage with the program's guidelines and recommendations demonstrates their commitment to rehabilitation and maintaining professional standards. This is crucial for regaining and retaining licensure in a field where the well-being of patients is paramount. In summary, cooperating with the treatment program is vital for the effectiveness of the diversion process, ensuring both personal recovery and the protection of public interest.
