Some people mistakenly use Chemical Use Assessment
as interchangeable with the above terms. In Minnesota,
the term
Chemical
Use Assessment refers to an
evaluation process using
a Rule 25 Assessment format.
A Rule 25
Assessment is conducted when a
person is seeking chemical dependency treatment and
qualifies for public funding from the
State of Minnesota to pay for
the treatment. The assessment process and decision
criteria are governed by MN Rule 25
(Minnesota Rules, parts 9530.6600 through 9530.6655).
Rule 25 assessors are county employees, or someone
contracted by the State of MN to provide assessment and
treatment services to those in financial need.
More information regarding Chemical Use Assessments (MN
Rule 25 Assessments) can be found on the
Hennepin County website.
