Given the nature of my work, I constantly need to know of regulatory changes in both Federal Law and all States, which have Law and/or Medical Boards governing healthcare professionals. Below is simply new language from one practice website. I agree, nor disagree with the information gained from this site. This is simply an aid for the doctor to be aware of changes and perhaps prevent displacement, temporary or permanent. I encourage doctors of all specialties to invest in similar monitoring of their practice websites so they can change bad language, help reduce future actions against their licenses and make life easier.
