Understand the recommendation
The initial minimum recommendation includes 10 hours of risk education and at least 20 hours of substance-use treatment. Complete the recommended treatment and participate in the continuing-care activities specified after discharge.
The classification is determined by an evaluator
Risk assignments consider the evaluation and required driving and arrest information. The applicable criteria include offense history, chemical-test information, and substance-use findings. Do not use this page to diagnose yourself or replace a qualified evaluation.
Questions for your provider
Prepare a written list before enrollment so the schedule and expected documents are clear.
- Ask how the treatment-needs assessment affects the level and duration of care.
- Discuss both education and treatment requirements before arranging a schedule.
- Retain treatment, discharge, and continuing-care records for the referring authority.
Completion and next steps
Ask who receives the final documents and how to confirm they were received. Completing recommended services is distinct from a court decision or restoration of driving privileges. Confirm any remaining document requirements and deadlines directly with the court or licensing agency handling your matter.
