Except as required by federal law, the governor shall not surrender a person charged in another state as a result of engaging in legally-protected health care activity, as defined in section 11I1/2 of chapter 12, unless the executive authority of the demanding state shall allege in writing that the accused was physically present in the demanding state at the time of the commission of the alleged offense and that thereafter the accused fled from the demanding state. The governor may surrender, on demand of the executive authority of any other state, any person in this commonwealth charged in the demanding state in the manner provided in section fourteen with having violated its laws, even though such person left such state involuntarily.
