(a) A center may not admit a minor client to the center unless:
(1) the client is a medically dependent or technologically dependent minor;
(2) the minor's prescribing physician issues a prescription ordering care at a center;
(3) the minor's parent or legal guardian consents to the minor's admission to the center; and
(4) the admission is voluntary based on the parent's or legal guardian's preference in both managed care and non-managed care service delivery systems.
(b) An admission authorized under this section is not intended to supplant the right to a Medicaid private duty nursing benefit, when medically necessary.
(c) A minor client's parent, legal guardian, or managing conservator is not required to accompany the client when:
(1) the client receives services in the center, including therapy services delivered in the center but billed separately; or
(2) the center transports or provides for the transport of the client to and from the center.
