§ 214.31 — Authority

Plain-Language Summary

Two or more health licensing boards can jointly run a health professionals services program to protect the public from regulated professionals who cannot practice safely due to illness, substance use, or mental or physical health conditions. The program does not replace a board's authority to discipline violations of its practice act.

Practical Notes
The health professionals services program is a joint effort among health boards to help impaired professionals while protecting the public. Participation in the program does not shield a professional from separate disciplinary action for practice act violations.
