§40.311
By "SAP`s own letterhead" we mean the letterhead the SAP uses in his or her daily counseling practice.
If the SAP is in private practice, the SAP should use the letterhead of his or her practice.
If the SAP works as an employee assistance professional for an organization, the SAP should use the employee assistance program`s letterhead.
If the SAP works for a community mental health service, the SAP should use the community mental health service`s letterhead.
The Department wants to avoid a SAP network provider requiring the SAP to use the provider`s letterhead rather than that of the SAP.
The Department wants to avoid another service agent contracting the SAP`s services to require the contracted SAP to use the service agent`s letterhead.
The Department wants to avoid any appearance that anyone changed the SAP`s recommendations or that the SAP`s report failed to go directly from the SAP to the employer.
The Department does not want the SAP to use a "fill-in-the-blanks" / "check-the-appropriate-boxes" type of pre-printed form, including any that are issued to the SAP by a SAP network provider, to which the network or SAP would affix the SAP`s letterhead information.
The SAP must generate and complete all information on the SAP report.
