Relating to notice regarding voting by physicians at certain entities to authorize the differentiation of physicians based on maintenance of certification.
Currently, certain physicians who serve on a board of hospital are allowed voting authority for the purpose of determining the hiring status of potential staff. Physicians that vote are required to not discriminate based on licensure. For example, the board is not to discriminate if a physician holds a license that is an MD or DO.
SB 1882 would require certain hospitals to provide a notification to the physicians of a voting board of a hospital in order for them receive information regarding an election in a timely manner.
