Regulatory design and system design are important parts of regulation. Forms can help clinicians know that they are going through the required steps they should be going through.
I don't think there could be a form that could say, “You must go through and try five different treatments before this is allowed.” That would be overly prescriptive, but the form itself can be a way of translating legislative safeguards or other best practices so that clinicians are going through those steps.
