It will also update the maximum daily fees payable to physical therapists and occupational therapists.
296-20	Clarifying "minimum standards" and "risk of harm" as used in SSB 5801 (chapter 6, Laws of 2011).	Diane Reus Office of the Medical Director (360) 902-4996	5/31/11 WSR 11-12-071	11/2/11	12/30/11	This rule will: (1) Establish minimum standards for credentials of medical providers and other requirements for medical provider network participation; and (2) clarify what constitutes patterns of risk of physical or psychiatric harm or death that determines when the department may remove a provider from the network.
296-20	Other WACs that may be in conflict with SSB 5801.	Diane Reus Office of the Medical Director (360) 902-4996	5/31/11 WSR 11-12-071	11/2/11	12/30/11	In the process of promulgating rules for SSB 5801 as described above, we may identify other WACs that are in conflict with SSB 5801. The timing for the adoption of these rules may or may not be the same as that for the "minimum standards" and "risk of harm," but we can reach for that goal.
296-20	Additional WACs that may be outside the scope of the CR-101 filed on May 31, 2011, in response to SSB 5801.	Diane Reus Office of the Medical Director (360) 902-4996	TBD (CR-101 may be filed prior to 12/31/11)	TBD	TBD	We may need a second round of rules to implement SSB 5801, in case we need to modify or expand the initial set of rules on minimum qualifications/risk of harm beyond what was written on the first CR-101. For instance, we may want to start the rule-making process to clarify the second tier network. It's possible that we will or won't file another CR-101 before the end of December.
296-20	Health technology clinical committee (HTCC) decisions.	Jami Lifka Office of the Medical Director (360) 902-4941	TBD	TBD	TBD	As the HTCC makes decisions, the agency may need to make rule changes to come in line with the decisions.

296-20	Pain management for chronic pain.	Jami Lifka Office of the Medical Director (360) 902-4941	TBD	TBD	TBD	During the 2010 legislative session, the department of health (DOH) boards and commissions were mandated to adopt rules that relate to pain management for chronic pain. There may be a need for L&I to amend its opioid rules in response to the DOH rules.
296-20	Permanent partial disability (PPD) impairment--Partial amputation of the finger.	Jami Lifka Office of the Medical Director (360) 902-4941	Suspended per Executive Order 10-06	TBD	TBD	Currently, RCW 51.32.080(1) specifies the PPD value of an amputation at the joint for upper extremities and lower extremities. It also specifies PPD values for amputation between the joints for upper extremities and lower extremities, but it does not list PPD values for amputation between the joints of the fingers. This leads to inconsistent PPD awards by claim managers. The new rule would specify how examiners determine impairment and specify how the department and self-insurers award PPD.

Jami Lifka Office of the Medical Director (360) 902-4941	Suspended per Executive Order 10-06	TBD	TBD	There has been some discussion with external stakeholders for the mental health impairment ratings.

A stakeholder group has been formed to assist the department with this rule making.
296-54	Safety standards for logging.	Kimberly Johnson DOSH Standards (360) 902-5008	11/16/10 WSR 10-23-096	Suspended per Executive Order 10-06	TBD	The department received several petitions for rule making for the logging standard.

This rule making is to address the requirements that employers must follow with regard to inspection, maintenance, and operation of cranes used in the construction industry. This phase will also include updates to the department's current rigging and personnel lifting requirements. The department may suspend some portions of the rule making that are not required by the federal government or requested by the affected entities.
296-155	Fall protection.	Kimberly Johnson DOSH Standards (360) 902-5008	4/4/06 WSR 06-08-085	Suspended per Executive Order 10-06	TBD	DOSH has been working with a fall protection ad hoc committee to consolidate the fall protection requirements of the construction safety rules into one coherent set of requirements. In addition, DOSH asked the committee to help identify any technical changes needed due to industry developments and to ensure that any gap in current fall protection would be addressed and rectified by the rule update.
296-304	Shipyards.	Kimberly Johnson DOSH Standards (360) 902-5008	TBD	TBD	TBD	OSHA is changing their rules on working conditions in shipyards, which updates existing requirements to reflect advances in industry practices and technology and provides new protections from hazards that were not previously addressed, including the control of hazardous energy.

296-800	Accident prevention program.	Cathy Julian DOSH Standards (360) 902-5401	Suspended per Executive Order 10-06	TBD	TBD	This rule making is to address an inconsistency that currently exists among several rules. Each call for an employer to create an accident prevention program, but have differing requirements for that program. The rule making will clarify the requirements for an accident prevention program, and will provide a single location where these requirements are stated. This will create consistency across the rules, and make it easier for employers to comply.
296-800	Emergency washing facilities.	Devin Proctor DOSH Standards (360) 902-5541	N/A	8/31/10 (CR-105) WSR 10-18-082 (withdrawn on 3/15/11) Suspended per Executive Order 10-06	TBD	This rule making will change the definition of "corrosive" in chapter 296-800 WAC, Safety and health core rules, so that it is identical to the definition of "corrosive" in Table 5 of chapter 296-839 WAC, Content and distribution of material safety data sheets (MSDSs) and label information.

ESSB 5068 directs an appeal of any violations classified and cited as serious, willful, repeat serious, or failure to abate serious violations does not stay abatement dates and requirements, except under certain circumstances. The department will not grant a stay when it can determine that the preliminary evidence shows a substantial probability of death or serious harm to workers.

The rules are also being reviewed and amended for clarity and ease of use.
