Behavioral health needs more than generic HIPAA controls
Substance use disorder records under 42 CFR Part 2 require stricter access and disclosure controls than standard medical records — and most general-purpose EHRs handle this through configuration workarounds that create compliance exposure. DocNow builds 42 CFR Part 2 record segmentation into the platform architecture, alongside PHQ-9, GAD-7, AUDIT-C, and Columbia Protocol (C-SSRS) screening tools integrated into the visit workflow.
Behavioral health documentation — done right
DocNow implements 42 CFR Part 2 record segmentation with role-based access controls, so substance use disorder records are only accessible to authorized providers with a documented need.
PHQ-9, GAD-7, AUDIT-C, and Columbia Protocol (C-SSRS) are built into the visit workflow, with scores auto-calculated and integrated into the clinical note and MIPS quality measures.
DocNow's consent management module tracks patient-specific disclosure authorizations by record type, helping behavioral health practices manage complex consent requirements systematically.
