for treatment and submission of bills.
Oklahoma Statutes - Title 63. Public Health and Safety Page 171
Any Oklahoma veteran who has been diagnosed with a traumatic
brain injury (TBI) and prescribed hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBOT)
by a medical professional authorized under Section 2 of this act may
receive HBOT at any facility in the state that has a hyperbaric
chamber and provides treatment in accordance with Section 2 of this
act.
Prior to receiving treatment, a treatment plan for the TBI by
HBOT shall be reviewed and conform to a plan approved by the
Oklahoma State University Center for Aerospace and Hyperbaric
Medicine. The facility seeking reimbursement from the fund shall
request approval for funding from the Director of the Office of
Management and Enterprise Services. Upon receipt of an approved
request for treatment, the funds for treatment shall be set aside
and used to ensure payment in full for the veteran's treatment. If
there is not enough money in the fund to set aside for treatment
reimbursement, the Director of Office of Management and Enterprise
Services shall deny approval of the request.
At the conclusion of six (6) months of no treatment and/or the
lack of submission of any bills, the Director of the Office of
Management and Enterprise Services shall advise the veteran and the
participating facility that the funding reserved for the HBOT shall
expire within ninety (90) days if no contact is made by the facility
that treatment is scheduled and/or continued. Should the facility
fail to contact the Office of Management and Enterprise Services
with the information that treatment is scheduled and/or continued,
then the monies reserved for treatment of that veteran shall be
released and made available to another veteran meeting the
requirements of this act.
