FAQs

The Impaired Driver Care Management Program (IDCMP) is an NH state-approved program that assists clients in meeting court and DMV requirements to have licenses reinstated. The IDCMP is NH’s system for evaluating and managing DUI education and treatment requirements.

The IDCMP screens and assesses a person after a DUI conviction to determine whether they need education, treatment, or both. The IDCMP monitors clients while they complete those requirements, then reports compliance to the court or DMV as required.

These rules implement the requirements of RSA 265-A for treatment and educational services for people convicted of driving while impaired offenses.

Intake/Screening: $100 plus the state fee. Evaluation: $275 if required. 20-Hour Impaired Driver Education Program: $400. Out of State Program Review: $350. Monthly Case Management Fee: $80.

If you complete an evaluation and a service plan is created that requires outpatient counseling, intensive outpatient, or residential services, your health insurance may help cover the cost of those required sessions.

A reduced fee may be available to New Hampshire residents receiving TANF, SSDI, SSI, state supplemental program assistance, or veteran disability benefits. Proof must be submitted before or at intake.

The IDCMP reviews your paperwork and asks questions to understand your situation. Intake typically includes document review, a discussion of your driving history and current offense, questions about alcohol or drug use, screening tools, and an explanation of next steps.

Evaluations are conducted by NH Licensed Alcohol & Drug Counselors or NH Master Licensed Alcohol & Drug Counselors. The evaluation includes a biopsychosocial assessment, ASAM Level of Care, and DSM diagnosis, resulting in a service plan and/or recommendations.

A service plan is a written outline created after intake and screening that explains what you are required to complete as part of the IDCMP. It is your roadmap for meeting court and/or DMV requirements.

A client may request a hearing with the Department of Safety pursuant to RSA 265-A:40, VI and Saf-C 204.20 to challenge recommendations or requirements.

Compliance means completing every required step in your service plan, submitting documentation, paying fees, meeting deadlines, and following attendance requirements. Once compliant, the IDCMP reports your completion status to the appropriate court or NH DMV.

Missing requirements, deadlines, appointments, payments, or documentation can result in non-compliance. Contact the team promptly if circumstances make a requirement difficult to complete.
