Description

The issue before us is whether a hospital may permit clinical psychologists to take primary responsibility for the diagnosis and treatment of their hospitalized patients. Prior to 1978, regulations of the Department of Health Services (hereafter Department) declared that a psychiatrist must take charge of the diagnosis and treatment of all patients admitted to psychiatric wards or hospitals.*fn1 In 1978, however, the Legislature enacted Health and Safety Code section 1316.5,*fn2 which after confirming that hospitals could admit psychologists to their staffs, provided that such psychologists may, subject to the rules of the hospital, "carry professional responsibilities consistent with the scope of their licensure and competence." In 1980 the Legislature added language declaring that if such a hospital offered services that both physicians and psychologists could perform, "such service may be performed by either, without discrimination."
