Note P19:
To collect tariffs should children and youth psychiatric clinics be professionally approved by the County, ref. Specialist Health Service Act § 4-1 second paragraph. To become academically approved must Polyclinic have suitable premises and adequate staffing. Because workforce polyclinic to be at least 4 technical positions with a physician specialized in child and adolescent psychiatry, specialist in clinical psychology with a specialization area of ​​clinical child and adolescent psychology, social worker with clinical training in child and adolescent psychiatry and clinical educator with training in child and adolescent psychiatry .
Approval of the clinic presupposes that a substantial portion of these specialist jobs have been filled. Other refunds triggering positions may be positions for college educated personnel with training in environmental therapy or other clinical education geared toward outpatient work with children, youth and their families, as well as training positions for doctors, psychologists, social worker, educator and environmental therapist.
Also psychiatric youth teams must be approved by the County to collect fares. To become academically approved must youth team have suitable premises. It requires a minimum crew of four professionals that a youth team to be approved as an independent team, including a doctor who specializes in psychiatry or child and adolescent psychiatry, psychologist and social worker.
Jobs by teams that do not have sufficient manpower to be approved as an independent team may be under adult psychiatric and pediatric psychiatric outpatient clinic and counts its reimbursement basis. In such cases used charges under "Child and adolescent psychiatry outpatient clinic and psychiatric youth teams" for the adolescents positions even if they are linked to adult psychiatric outpatient clinic. By reference to psychiatric youth teams for interdisciplinary specialized treatment for substance triggered fare only if the regional health authorities have designated these to receive such referrals.
County governor pursuant to the first and third paragraphs may be appealed to the national appeal body for health.
It should not be stipulated for treatment for children and youth psychiatric clinics or by psychiatric youth teams, ref. The regulations, § 4 section. 5. The deductible is included in the reimbursement tariff.
Necessary laboratory and X-ray examinations are included the respective fares.
Note P20:

Inspectors P20 includes 1-time consultation. The tariff can only be used once per year for the same patient. This also applies to emergency care. The tariff can be used again after one year, but requires new referral from a physician in primary care or somatic hospital ward or child welfare or municipality in NAV, ev. immediate help. The tariff may also be applied if the consultation has taken place outside the polyclinic premises.
Note P21:
valuation may be required per person-hour employee in approved position has performed outpatient work. A FTEs considered 1725 hours. Sickness beyond the period for which the employer is responsible for payroll and leave with or without pay deducted. With outpatient work means therefore all forms of patient care, general counseling and guidance, skills development and internal collaboration. Academic leadership provides the basis for reimbursement, while commercial positions do not give refunds. Number of hours per employee is calculated in terms of seniority share.
Relevant technical positions include doctors, psychologists, nurses, social workers, educators and social educators and other relevant college and university education.
Jobs requiring reimbursement for must be related to approved clinics. To the extent that employees at other departments perform outpatient work that will provide the basis for reimbursement must be part of a position to be linked to the clinic.
Note P22:
Inspectors P22 includes examination, diagnosis and treatment until the patient can be attributed primary care, childcare or municipality in NAV if it is requester. The charges may also be required if the assessment / treatment has taken place outside the polyclinic premises. 1 Initial consultation applies tariff P20.
Note P23:
Inspectors P23 may be required when employed by an approved dedicated post (ref. Note P21) has actively participated in the follow-up meeting with the first line of named patient or given guidance to the front line. First-line defined in this context as a primary / municipal, school, NAV office, municipality, kindergarten, childcare or PPT.
The tariff may also be required if the meeting / tutorial is held outside the polyclinic premises.
Note P24:
Inspectors P24 may be required when employed by an approved dedicated post (ref. Note P21) had follow-up conversation by phone with front-line (ref. Note P23) about a named person. The charges may also be requested by telephone consultation with a patient. It is a condition for requiring a valuation P24 that phone call should have the character of consultation. Inspectors P24 may not be required for brief conversations where case information obtained, Meeting Appointments determined etc.
Note P27
valuation may be required in addition to the P20, P22, P22a and P22b when processes (e) seek patient ambulatory and this is justified in patient needs.
With ambulatory services meant outpatient contacts undertaken by specialist health services beyond the scope of ordinary physical premises in hospital, and using the organization's own personnel.
The outpatient service form must be justified in at least one of the following considerations:

-
Access to necessary health services.

-
Prudent and caring treatment.

-
Adequate assessment and mapping of therapeutic possibilities.

-
Cooperation with municipal health and care services.

Note P25:
may be required additional fare for comprehensive personality testing, which intelligence assessment / capability assessment, special function surveys, environmental assessments, personality assessments and neuropsychological examinations. Additional Charge for tests does not include general diagnostic tools. The tariff may only be required in connection with the use of tariff P22.
Note P26:
In group therapy may fare P26 required in addition to tariff P22. The same applies to family treatment. It uses only a main fare and an additional fare per group / family session, so that the number of people present in the group does not affect the number of fees.
R Laboratory testing and trying
order for medical laboratories should be able to collect fares, the business must be approved according to regulations on 1 December 2000 no. 1276 concerning medical laboratory and radiology operations issued pursuant to the Specialized Health Services Act § 2-1 fourth paragraph, § 4-1 and § 5-2, fourth paragraph. For that hospitals should be able to collect the fares must laboratory activities be part of the approved establishment of the hospital in accordance with regulations issued pursuant to the Specialized Health Services Act § 4-1.
