Eligibility

The HAVEN Medical Review Committee (MRC), a peer-review based multidisciplinary committee, determines eligibility for participation in HAVEN as well as the terms and conditions for participation. Physical illness, including but not limited to chronic degenerative conditions and aging, mental illness including depression, anxiety and mood disorders, and chemical dependence including pain management and substance use disorders may qualify a participant for HAVEN’s services. HAVEN is not required to notify the Department of Public Health (DPH) or other appropriate licensing authority unless there are felony charges, a past history of licensure discipline, pending licensure discipline, or allegations of patient harm. Under these limited circumstances, DPH will make the final determination of eligibility to participate in this confidential program. When the discipline is more than five years old or unrelated, or felony charges do not result in a conviction, DPH will often exercise its discretion to allow the professional to work with HAVEN. If a professional who may be at risk becomes known to HAVEN and elects not to work with HAVEN, HAVEN is required to notify the appropriate licensing board.
