Is there a way through a macro to separate a multi-sheet drawing so that each sheet becomes its own drawing? Any help/insights on this would be greatly appreciated.

There probably is a way. To me, it's probably faster to save-as and delete unwanted sheets and replace formats, then edit as needed. You will need to some of it anyway after a macro.
Hi Ryan,
You might be able to use #Task but I did look through their drawings automation section and nothing jumped out at me. The "Copy Drawing with new reference" might work by only choosing to use half of the function but I don't think it is going to delete the pages that are no longer used.
SW also seems to retain a lot of information when drawings are split so I sometimes find it better to recreate the more simple drawings rather then split them. A newly created drawing seems to operate faster then one split from a larger file set.
Hopefully that helps a bit.

As Grant has mentioned, use #TASK tool and explore the inbuilt drawing splitter.
