Since November 1, 2021; IFEHC has announced the right to collect 100% refundable deposits. To date, IFEHC's Medical Director has not enforced this rule. He does not foresee doing so in the immediate future. However, please be advised IFEHC has the right to enforce this rule at any point. If, for instance, the Medical Director is out of town; it is reasonable to expect to be assessed a 100% refundable deposit if the Medical Director changes his plans to accommodate your schedule.

This document is NOT applicable for most employment health holders. It is a resource for individuals who are looking for Substance Abuse Professionals (SAP's). Those people are exclusively those who fail DOT drug tests or have been mandated by their employer to seek assistance.


List of DOT-certified substance abuse professionals. Accessed from NAADAC's directory on September 7, 2021. According to NAADAC: "[T]he following directory lists people who have successfully obtained the U.S. Department of Transportation's Substance Abuse Professionals (SAP) Qualification through NAADAC's Substance Abuse Professional's U.S. DOT Alcohol and Drug Testing Regulation Qualification Independent Study Course."

Disclaimer that IFEHC does NOT endorse the contents of this directory. Because IFEHC cannot routinely update the list, we recommend you check NAADAC directly to verify the provider is still listed and confirm with the provider when scheduling an appointment. Are you a new DOT-certified SAP serving the non-Coastal West who wants to be listed? Contact IFEHC (info@IFEHC.com)!


Additional comment: it should be rare that anyone other than employers or other healthcare professionals needs this list. SAP's apply when an individual has failed a DOT drug screen. It is the employer's legal obligation to provide a copy of this list. If your employer tells you to go to an SAP but does not provide a list of SAP's, we suggest seeking legal counsel.

IFEHC's Medical Director recently decided IFEHC's Free Health Clinic-Adult Internal Medicine can prescribe controlled substances in limited circumstances. IFEHC's Medical Director and Compliance Officer determined that IFEHC must require anyone taking controlled substances to enter into a therapeutic agreement. Therapeutic contracts are advised by most states' Boards of Pharmacy. This document is publicly available and made known any time prescriptions for regulated substances are made. Thus, all that signing this document shows is that you are acting in good faith. A lack of signature does not vindicate you from the consequences of violating this agreement.


We draw a few additional points to your attention. Your HIPAA rights are substantially restricted. Part of prescribers' responsibilities is to cooperate with government agencies and/or law enforcement in efforts to curb abuse. Although you are entitled to certain privacy protections, those protections fall outside HIPAA. In addition; in IFEHC's interpretation, HIPAA does NOT apply to access of information. You will not be permitted access to any regulatory reports unless regulators mandate IFEHC disclose them. In addition, IFEHC produces screening documents that it regards in the public's interest. For the reason that such screening is designed to protect the public (viz, disclosure could compromise surveillance efforts), this/these document(s) are not considered part of the designated record set (DRS). Under most circumstances, these will not be released as part of medical records requests.


In summary; Idaho Falls Employment Clinic, PLLC, or IFEHC believes strongly in the importance of building trust with patients, putting their interest first, and taking all possible steps to advocate for them. However, IFEHC believes in doing so within the confines of the law and that its obligations last as long as fundamental terms of contract have not been violated. To this effect, IFEHC makes known it is eager to develop a reputation among the regulators and the community in general for strictly enforcing applicable laws and making all good faith efforts to protect the public at large.
