Referrals

Anyone with a concern should call for a confidential consultation.
Whether the concern is for yourself, a loved one, co-worker, or employee, do not wait until there is a problem that may threaten the professional's career, license, or their life. The call to the MPHP is confidential* and free.  Staff will help you understand the role that MPHP plays in helping professionals and, if appropriate, will provide you with important evaluation and treatment information.

Participants may enter into the program in any of the following ways: 
  • Self Referral:  An individual who contacts the MPHP themselves without being required to do so by an employer or licensing Board is considered to be a voluntary participant. 
  • 3rd Party Referral: An individual is referred to MPHP by a concerned 3rd party. The referral source remains anonymous to the potential participant. The referral source will be notified once initial contact is made with the prospective participant. After this initial contact, no additional information is shared with the referral source unless proper releases are obtained from the participant. Third-party referrals may include families, friends, colleagues, or any other interested source. A participant referred by a 3rd party is still considered a voluntary participant. 
  • Board Referral: Individual licensing boards refer individuals to MPHP, sometimes as a result of the licensure application process and sometimes as a result of Board action. A participant referred by the board and who has a Board Order is considered to be a mandated participant.

During business hours, MPHP staff members are available to accept your calls. If you don't immediately reach someone, leave a message on the confidential voicemail and someone will return your call, usually within 24 hours.
