- Summary:
-
This fact sheet on state laws governing the independent practice and reimbursement of services for clinical social workers contains information from questionnaires sent to the state agencies responsible for health insurance regulations and Medicaid and licensing activities. Information on Ohio, the only state which did not respond, is not included. The information in this fact sheet covers three areas: (1) licensing, registration, or certification practices applicable to social workers; (2) recognition of social workers in private practice as alternative providers of mental health services for insurance purposes; and (3) recognition by state Medicaid programs of social workers in private practice as alternative providers of mental health services. Included are sections on objectives, scope, and methodology; the definition of clinical social work; a summary of information obtained on clinical social work; state licensing of social workers; recognition by state for insurance purposes; and recognition by Medicaid. Appendix I contains qualifications and definitions from national social work associations. Appendix II gives the various definitions of social work used by the 31 states that do license social workers. Appendices III and IV examine licensing and insurance provisions for the 19 practice-restrictive states and Appendix V looks at licensing and insurance provisions for the 12 title-restrictive states. Three data tables are provided which show social work license restrictions and insurance recognition by state and which list information on clinical social work licenses in practice- and title-restrictive states.
