Existing law provides for the licensure and regulation of various healing arts professions and vocations by boards established within the Department of Consumer Affairs, and establishes the standards for licensure or certification of health professionals. Existing law makes certain violations of specified provisions relating to healing arts by a licensee or registrant a crime.
This bill would require a healing arts board, as defined, to require a licensee or registrant who electronically renews their license or registration to provide to that board the licensee's or registrant's individual National Provider Identifier, if they have one. The bill would provide that a violation of the bill's requirements is not a crime.
