PROTECTIVE CUSTODY WITHOUT HEARING.
(1) No person shall be taken into protective custody or detained as an alleged emergency patient for observation, diagnosis, evaluation, care or treatment of a neurocogni- tive disorder unless and until the court has ordered such apprehension and custody pursuant to section 56-1905, Idaho Code;
provided, however, that a person may be taken into custody by a peace officer and placed in a hospital, or the person may be detained at a hospital at which the person presented or was brought to receive medical care, if the peace officer or a health care provider in such hospital has reason to believe that person has a neurocogni- tive disorder and the person is likely to injure themselves or others;
pro- vided, under no circumstances shall the person be detained in a nonmedical unit used for the detention of persons charged with or convicted of penal of- fenses.
Whenever a person is taken into custody or detained pursuant to this section without a court order, the evidence supporting the claim that the person with the neurocognitive disorder is likely to injure themselves or others must be presented to a duly authorized court within twenty-four (24) hours from the time the person was placed in custody or detained.
(2) If the court finds there is reason to believe the person is likely to have a neurocognitive disorder and likely to injure themselves or others pursuant to subsection (1) of this section, the court shall issue a temporary protective placement custody order requiring the person to be held in a hos- pital and requiring an examination of the person by a health care provider in such hospital within twenty-four (24) hours of the entry of the order of the court.
Under no circumstances shall the person be detained in a nonmedical unit used for the detention of persons charged with or convicted of penal of- fenses.
(3) Where an examination is required pursuant to subsection (2) of this section, the health care provider in such hospital shall make findings and report to the court within twenty-four (24) hours of the examination.
(4) If at any time after the person is placed in protective custody the health care provider in such hospital conducting the examination determines the person no longer meets criteria for protective custody, the person shall be deemed to be a voluntary patient and subject to release.
(5) If the health care provider in such hospital finds, in an examina- tion pursuant to this section, that the person is likely to have a neurocog- nitive disorder and is likely to injure themselves or others, the prosecut- ing attorney shall file, within twenty-four (24) hours of the examination of the person, a petition with the court requesting the person's continued pro- tective placement pending review proceedings pursuant to section 56-1905, Idaho Code.
(6) Upon the receipt of such a petition, the court shall order the per- son's detention to await hearing, which shall be within five (5) days, in- cluding Saturdays, Sundays, and legal holidays, of the protective placement order.
If no petition is filed within twenty-four (24) hours of the exami- nation described in subsection (5) of this section, the person shall be re- leased from the protective placement.
(7) Upon taking a person into custody, a good faith effort shall be made to provide notice to the person's legal guardian, parent, spouse, or adult next of kin of the person's physical whereabouts and the reasons for taking the person into custody.

(4) Upon receipt of an application for emergency protective placement, the court shall, within forty-eight (48) hours, order another health care provider practicing in such hospital to make a personal examination of the person, or if the person has not been examined, the court shall appoint two (2) health care providers practicing in such hospital to make individual personal examinations of the person and may order the person to submit to an immediate examination.
If neither is a physician, the court shall order a physical examination of the person.
The health care provider practicing in such hospital shall report to the court findings within the following sev- enty-two (72) hours as to the medical condition of the person and the need for custody, care, or treatment by a hospital.
The reports shall be in the form of written certificates that shall be filed with the court.
The court may terminate the proceedings and dismiss the application without taking any further action in the event the reports are to the effect that the person is not likely to injure themselves or others due to a neurocognitive disorder.
If the proceedings are terminated, the person shall be released immediately.
(5) If the health care provider practicing in such hospital certifies a belief that the person is likely to injure themselves or others due to a neu- rocognitive disorder, the judge shall issue an order authorizing any health officer, peace officer, or director of a facility to take the person to a hos- pital in the community in which the person is residing or to the nearest hos- pital to await the hearing, and for good cause, may authorize treatment dur- ing such period.
Under no circumstances shall the person be detained in a nonmedical unit used for the detention of individuals charged with or con- victed of penal offenses.
(6) Upon receipt of such application for emergency protective place- ment by the health care provider practicing in such hospital, the court shall appoint a time and place for a hearing not more than seven (7) days from the receipt of such certificates and thereupon give written notice of such time and place of such hearing, together with a copy of the application, the health care provider's certificates, and notice of the person's right to be represented by an attorney or, if indigent, to be represented by a court-ap- pointed attorney to the applicant, and to the person and the person's spouse, guardian, next of kin, or friend.
With the consent of the person and the person's attorney, the hearing may be held immediately.
Upon motion of the petitioner, or upon motion of the person and the person's attorney, and for good cause shown, the court may continue the hearing up to an additional seven (7) days during which time, for good cause shown, the court may autho- rize treatment.
(7) An opportunity to be represented by counsel shall be afforded to ev- ery person and, if neither the person nor others provide counsel, the court shall appoint counsel in accordance with chapter 8, title 19, Idaho Code, no later than the time the application for emergency protective placement is received by the court.
(8) If the protective placement is commenced under this section, the hearing shall be held in a manner and at a suitable place not likely to have a harmful effect on the person's physical or mental health.
Venue for the hearing shall be in the county of residence of the person or in the county where the person was found immediately prior to commencement of such pro- ceedings.
(9) In all proceedings under this section, any existing provision of the law prohibiting the disclosure of confidential communications between the person and the health care provider practicing in such hospital shall not apply and any health care provider practicing in such hospital who shall have examined the person shall be a competent witness to testify as to the per- son's condition.
(10) The person, the applicant, and any other persons to whom notice is required to be given shall be afforded an opportunity to appear at the hear- ing to testify and to present and cross-examine witnesses.
The person may, after consulting with the person's attorney, request to waive the person's presence at court.
The court may waive the presence of the person if the men- tal or physical state of the person is such that the person's presence at the hearing would be detrimental to the person's health or would unduly disrupt the proceedings.
A record of the proceedings shall be made as for other civil hearings.
The hearing shall be conducted in as informal a manner as may be consistent with orderly procedure.
The court shall receive all relevant and material evidence consistent with the rules of evidence.
(11) If, upon completion of the hearing and consideration of the record, and after consideration of reasonable alternatives, the court finds by clear and convincing evidence that the person likely has a neurocognitive disorder and is likely to injure themselves or others, the court shall order the per- son to be placed under protective custody of a suitable medical hospital for observation, care, and treatment for an indeterminate period of time not to exceed seven (7) days.
(12) The order of protective placement shall state whether the person lacks capacity to make informed decisions about treatment and the name and address of the person's attorney, spouse, guardian, adult next of kin, or friend.
(13) If the person has no spouse or guardian and if the person has prop- erty that may not be cared for by the person while confined at a hospital, the court shall appoint a guardian ad litem for the purpose of preserving the person's estate, pending further guardianship or conservatorship proceed- ings.

(a) "Protective custody period" means a period that begins when a per- son is taken into custody pursuant to sections 56-1904 and 56-1905, Idaho Code, and ends when the patient is released from protective cus- tody.
(b) "Routine medical care" includes care provided during the protec- tive custody period that includes hospital costs, including routine board, room, and support services.
(c) "Third-party applicant" means a person other than a patient who completes, signs, and files an application for medicaid on behalf of the patient.
A third-party applicant may be an adult who is a member of the patient's family or household, the patient's authorized representa- tive, or, if the patient is incapacitated, someone, including an agent of a facility, who is acting responsibly for the patient.
(2) In instances where the person placed in protective custody is re- leased with no underlying medical conditions in addition to the person's neurocognitive disorder having been identified, costs associated with the protective custody shall be the responsibility of the person placed in protective custody, subject to the department of health and welfare's deter- mination of the person's ability to pay all or any part of such costs.
The department shall:
(a) Use the state-approved fee determination form and sliding fee schedule described in rules promulgated by the department to determine the person's ability to pay;
(b) Inquire to determine if the person has insurance, including medical assistance provided under the state plan for medicaid as authorized by title XIX of the social security act, as amended;

(4) To the extent possible, the costs of routine medical care incurred during protective custody shall be assigned to a person's health insurance, including medical assistance provided under the state plan for medicaid as authorized by title XIX of the social security act, as amended.
If a person may be eligible for medicaid but has not applied, a third-party applicant, including an agent at a hospital where a person is taken into custody or de- tained under this chapter, may submit a medicaid application to the depart- ment of health and welfare.
The medical care provided while the person is in protective custody shall be presumed to be medically necessary for purposes of determining reimbursement for that care by third-party payers.
(5) Remaining costs for routine medical care shall be apportioned as follows:
(a) The department of health and welfare shall pay providers at the rate established by medicaid or its managed care organization.
If, based on the department of health and welfare's determination under subsection (2) of this section, the person is able to pay a portion of the medical costs, the person shall reimburse the department consistent with the department's sliding fee schedule;
or (b) Costs for routine medical care during the protective placement pe- riod shall be paid by the department of health and welfare, consistent with the process described in paragraph (a) of this subsection.
