Standing Delegation Order
A written order authorizing a qualified person to perform specific delegated acts for patients meeting defined criteria, under the delegating provider's authority.
Why it matters
Standing delegation orders must align with state delegation and supervision rules and should be reviewed periodically.
State variation
How Standing Delegation Order applies can differ by state, provider credentials, and the treatments offered. NOVI’s state pages summarize the considerations for Texas, Florida, and California — but always confirm current rules for your jurisdiction with official sources.
