SA国际传媒Criteria
Copyright and Permissions
SA国际传媒uses permissions agreements to authorize the use of ASAM鈥檚 intellectual property.
Overview
The SA国际传媒Criteria® is the nation’s most respected, comprehensive, and widely used set of clinical standards for matching patients to the right level of care based on the severity of their disease and their multidimensional needs. The common language and universal standards set by The SA国际传媒Criteria establish a framework to help payors and healthcare systems ensure they are offering the full continuum of care to meet patients’ needs.
However, when The SA国际传媒Criteria is not fully implemented or used with fidelity, it can undermine patient care and compromise recovery. SA国际传媒has a responsibility – to providers, payors, regulators, patients and their families – to ensure The SA国际传媒Criteria continues to be equated with high-quality care proven to be effective in addiction treatment.
The following framework will be used to grant permissions for the use of ASAM’s intellectual property with disclaimers that help avoid confusion among patients, families, providers or payors. This process is part of a larger effort by SA国际传媒to support the implementation of The SA国际传媒Criteria standards across the addiction treatment system.
