May 23, 2014 - As far as I know there are no sanctions if clinicians do not follow the DSM 5 but they may cause patients difficulty in gaining insurance and other benefits if they don't use the DSM 5 to diagnose. Jun 25, 2013 - DSM-V also requires clinicians to specify the severity level of a client's ADHD as either Mild, Moderate, or Severe.
