Supervision of certain professional, occupational licensing boards; definitions.
Status: in_force

1. a. Notwithstanding the provisions of any State law, rule, or regulation to the contrary, a regulatory officer shall, in order to provide antitrust immunity to a board consistent with federal law, establish and implement a protocol consistent with the provisions of this section applicable to the proposed regulations, actions and decisions of any board under the regulatory officer's purview for which: (1) the majority of members are active market participants of the profession or occupation regulated by that board; and (2) but for a vacancy or vacancies in the membership of the board, that board would otherwise have a majority of members that are active market participants. The regulatory officer shall review any potentially anticompetitive regulation, action, or decision proposed by a board that is under the regulatory officer's purview and meets the criteria set forth in paragraph (1) or (2) of this subsection, to determine whether the proposed regulation, action, or decision displaces competition and, if so, whether it is consistent with and furthers or promotes clearly articulated and affirmatively expressed State policy or the inherent, logical, or ordinary result of that policy. If it is determined as a result of that review that the proposed regulation, action or decision is not consistent with and does not further or promote clearly articulated and affirmatively expressed State policy, or is not the inherent, logical or ordinary result of the board's statutorily-delegated authority, or both, the regulatory officer shall disapprove, veto, modify, amend or remand to the board for the development of a factual record of the proposed regulation, action or decision, as may be necessary or appropriate. A proposed regulation, action, or decision shall not take effect unless the regulatory officer has conducted the review authorized by this section and taken additional action as may be necessary or appropriate under this section, provided that nothing in this section shall be construed to create a private right of action, except as provided in subsection c. of this section, or preclude any action to address possible anticompetitive impacts after the proposed regulation, action, or decision takes effect. For the purposes of this subsection, no person licensed by the board whose action or decision is under review pursuant to the protocol established pursuant to this subsection shall be permitted to serve as a regulatory officer's designee for the review of that board's actions or decisions. b. A person serving as a member of a board shall not be liable in any action for damages to any person in a civil action as a result of any action taken or recommendation or decision made within the scope of the person's function as a member of the board which was subject to review in accordance with the protocol established pursuant to subsection a. of this section, unless the person acted in bad faith or with malice. The Attorney General shall defend the person in any civil suit and the State shall provide indemnification for any damages awarded in any resulting civil action, unless the person acted in bad faith or with malice. c. A person may file a complaint relating to any proposed regulation, action, or decision of a board that the person alleges is potentially anticompetitive. The regulatory officer who is responsible for establishing or implementing the protocol to review any potentially anticompetitive regulation, action, or decision proposed by the board shall review the complaint to determine whether the proposed regulation, action, or decision was reviewed pursuant to subsection a. of this section. The regulatory officer shall review the proposed regulation, action, or decision, pursuant to the protocol established in subsection a. of this section, if: (1) the regulatory officer determines that the proposed regulation, action, or decision was not reviewed pursuant to subsection a. of this section but is potentially anticompetitive; or (2) the complaint provides new information that was not previously considered during the regulatory officer's review of the proposed regulation, action, or decision. In this case, the regulatory officer shall take the new information into account and may continue to rely on the outcome of the prior review or may take action to disapprove, veto, modify, amend or remand to the board for the development of a factual record of the proposed regulation, action, or decision, as may be necessary or appropriate. The regulatory officer shall issue a written response to the person who filed the complaint advising that person accordingly. d. As used in this section: "Active market participant" means a member of a board who: (1) is licensed or certified by the board; or (2) owns or shares ownership in a business or professional practice that provides any service that is subject to the regulatory authority of the board. "Board" means a board, committee, commission, or any other entity created by law to act on behalf of the State of New Jersey to license or otherwise regulate a profession or occupation in this State.

Findings, declarations relative to medical education in providing culturally competent health care.
Status: in_force

1. The Legislature finds and declares that: a. The findings of a recently reported, federally-funded study by Georgetown University, in conjunction with the Rand Corporation and the University of Pennsylvania, which were published in the New England Journal of Medicine, indicate that physicians are far less likely to refer blacks and women than white men with identical complaints of chest pain to heart specialists for cardiac catheterization; and the authors of this study suggest that the difference in referral rates stems from racial and sexual biases; b. These findings are the latest in a growing body of medical literature which documents race and gender-based disparities in the provision of health care, especially in the treatment of cardiovascular disease; however, according to the Surgeon General of the United States, the Georgetown University study represents the best attempt to date to document the racial attitudes of physicians as a factor in the poorer health of African Americans; c. It is estimated that the minority population in the United States will increase by 60% between now and the year 2010; d. Cultural awareness and cultural competence are essential skills for providing quality health care to a diverse patient population; e. Only a small percentage of medical schools nationwide currently provide some formal training in cultural competence; f. The Association of American Medical Colleges is working to help medical schools improve the teaching of cultural competency; and g. The public interest in providing quality health care to all segments of society dictates the need for a formal requirement that medical professionals be trained in the provision of culturally competent health care as a condition of licensure to practice medicine in New Jersey.

Nurse Multistate Licensure Compact

1. The State of New Jersey enacts and enters into the Nurse Multistate Licensure Compact with all other jurisdictions that legally join in the compact in the form substantially as follows: Article I. Findings and Statement of Purpose. 1. The party states to this compact find that: a. The health and safety of the public are affected by the degree of compliance with and the effectiveness of enforcement activities related to state nurse licensure laws; b. Violations of nurse licensure and other laws relating to the practice of nursing may result in injury or harm to the public; c. The expanded mobility of nurses and the use of advanced communication technologies as part of our nation's health care delivery system require greater coordination and cooperation among states in the areas of nurse licensure and regulation; d. New practice modalities and technology make compliance with individual state nurse licensure laws difficult and complex; and e. The current system of duplicative licensure for nurses practicing in multiple states is cumbersome and redundant to both nurses and the states. 2. The general purposes of this compact are to: a. Facilitate the states' responsibility to protect the health and safety of the public; b. Ensure and encourage the cooperation of party states in the areas of nurse licensure and regulation; c. Facilitate the exchange of information between party states in the areas of nurse regulation, investigation, and adverse actions; d. Promote compliance with the laws governing the practice of nursing in each jurisdiction; and e. Through the mutual recognition of party state licenses, authorize the party states to hold a nurse accountable for meeting all nurse practice laws in the state in which the patient is located at the time that care was rendered. Article II. Definitions. 3. For the purposes of this compact, and of any supplemental or concurring legislation enacted under this compact, except as may be otherwise required by the context: a. "Adverse action" means a home or remote state action. b. "Alternative program" means a voluntary, nondisciplinary monitoring program approved by a nurse licensing board. c. "Compact" means this Nurse Multistate Licensing Compact. d.

"Current significant investigative information" means investigative information that indicates a licensee: (1) has committed more than a minor infraction; or (2) represents an immediate threat to public health and safety. f. "Home state" means the party state that is the nurse's primary state of residence. g. "Home state action" means any administrative, civil, equitable, or criminal action permitted by the laws of the home state that is imposed on a nurse by the licensing board or other authority of the home state. "Home state action" includes: revocation, suspension or probation of a licensee; or any other action that affects a nurse's authorization to practice. h. "Licensee" means a person licensed by the New Jersey Board of Nursing or the nurse licensing board of a party state. i. "Licensing board" means a party state's regulatory agency that is responsible for licensing nurses. j. "Multistate licensure privilege" means the current, official authority from a remote state permitting the practice of nursing as either a registered nurse or a licensed practical or vocational nurse in a party state. k. "Nurse" means a registered nurse or a licensed practical or vocational nurse as those terms are defined by the laws of each party state. l. "Party state" means any state that has adopted this compact. m. "Remote state" means the party state, other than the home state: (1) where the patient is located at the time nursing care is provided; or (2) in the case of the practice of nursing that does not involve a patient, where the recipient of nursing practices is located. n.

"State" means a state, territory, or possession of the United States, the District of Columbia, or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. p. "State practice laws" means those individual party state's laws and regulations that govern the practice of nursing, define the scope of nursing practice, and create the methods and grounds for disciplining nurses. "State practice laws" does not include the initial qualifications for licensure or the requirements necessary to obtain and retain a license, except for the qualifications and requirements of the home state. Article III. General Provisions and Jurisdiction. 4. a. A license to practice registered nursing issued by a home state to a resident of that state shall be recognized by each party state as authorization for a multistate licensure privilege to practice as a registered nurse in a party state. A license to practice practical or vocational nursing issued by a home state to a resident in that state shall be recognized by each party state as authorization for a multistate licensure privilege to practice as a licensed practical or vocational nurse in a party state. In order to obtain or retain a license, an applicant shall meet the home state's qualifications for licensure and license renewal, as well as other applicable state laws. b. Party states may, in accordance with the due process laws of that state, limit, suspend or revoke the multistate licensure privilege of any licensee to practice in the state and may take any other actions under the applicable state laws necessary to protect the health and safety of the citizens of the party state. If a party state takes an action authorized by this section, it shall promptly notify the administrator of the coordinated licensure information system. The administrator shall promptly notify the home state of any actions by remote states. c. Every licensee practicing in a party state shall comply with the state practice laws of the state in which the patient is located at the time that care is rendered. The practice of nursing is not limited to patient care, but shall include all nursing practice, as defined by the practice laws of a party state. The practice of nursing in a party state shall subject a nurse to the jurisdiction of the nurse licensing board and the laws and courts of the party state. d. This compact does not affect additional requirements imposed by states for advanced practice registered nursing. However, a multistate licensure privilege to practice registered nursing granted by a party state shall be recognized by other party states as a license to practice registered nursing if one is required by state law as a precondition for qualifying for advanced practice registered nurse authorization. e. Persons not residing in a party state may continue to apply for nurse licensure in party states as provided for under the laws of each party state. The license granted to the person shall not be recognized as granting the privilege to practice nursing in any other party state unless explicitly agreed to by that party state. Article IV. Application for Licensure in a Party State. 5. a. Upon receiving an application for a license, the licensing board in a party state shall ascertain, through the coordinated licensure information system, whether: (1) the applicant holds or has ever held a license issued by any other state; (2) there are any restrictions on the applicant's multistate licensure privilege; and (3) any other adverse action by any state has been taken against the applicant's license. b. A licensee in a party state shall hold licensure in only one party state at a time, which license shall be issued by the home state. c. A licensee who intends to change his primary state of residence may apply for licensure in the new home state in advance of the change; however, a new license shall not be issued by a party state until after the licensee provides evidence of the change in the primary state of residence that is satisfactory to the new home state's licensing board. d. When a licensee changes his primary state of residence by moving: (1) between two party states and obtains a license from the new home state, the license from the former home state is no longer valid; (2) from a nonparty state to a party state and obtains a license from the new home state, the license issued by the nonparty state shall not be affected and shall remain in full force if the laws of the nonparty state so provide; and (3) from a party state to a nonparty state, the license issued by the former home state converts to an individual state license that is valid only in the former home state. The license does not grant the multistate licensure privilege to practice in other party states. Article V. Adverse Actions. 6. a. The remote state's nurse licensing board shall promptly report to the administrator of the coordinated licensure information system any remote state actions, including the factual and legal basis for the actions, if known. The remote state's nurse licensing board shall also promptly report any current significant investigative information yet to result in a remote state action. The administrator shall promptly notify the home state of any such reports. b. The party state's nurse licensing board may complete any pending investigation of a licensee who changes his primary state of residence during the course of an investigation. It may also take appropriate action against a licensee, and shall promptly report the conclusion of the investigation to the administrator of the coordinated licensure information system. The administrator shall promptly notify the new home state of any action taken against a licensee. c. A remote state may take adverse action that affects the multistate licensure privilege to practice within that party state; however, only the home state may take adverse action that affects a license that was issued by the home state. d. For purposes of taking adverse action, the home state's nurse licensing board shall give the same priority and effect to the conduct reported by a remote state that it would if the conduct had occurred in the home state. The board shall apply its own state laws to determine the appropriate action that should be taken against the licensee. e. The home state may take adverse action based upon the factual findings of the remote state, if each state follows its own procedures for imposing the adverse action. f. Nothing in this compact shall prohibit a party state from allowing a licensee to participate in an alternative program instead of taking adverse action against the licensee. If required by the party state's laws, the licensee's participation in an alternative program shall be confidential information. Party states shall require licensees who enter alternative programs to agree not to practice in any other party state during the term of the alternative program without prior authorization from the other party state. Article VI. Additional Authority Invested in Party State Nurse Licensing Boards. 7. Notwithstanding any other powers, party state nurse licensing boards may: a. If otherwise permitted by state law, recover from the licensee the costs of investigating and disposing of cases that result in adverse action; b. Issue subpoenas for both hearings and investigations that require the attendance and testimony of witnesses, and the production of evidence. Subpoenas issued by a party state nurse licensing board for the attendance and testimony of witnesses or the production of evidence from another party state, shall be enforced in the other party state by any court of competent jurisdiction, according to the practice and procedure of that court. The issuing authority shall pay any witness fees, travel expenses, mileage, and other fees required by the laws of the party state where the witnesses or the evidence are located; c. Issue cease and desist orders to limit or revoke a licensee's authority to practice in the board's state; and d. Adopt uniform rules and regulations that are developed by the compact administrators pursuant to Article VIII of this compact. Article VII. Coordinated Licensure Information System. 8. a. All party states shall participate in a cooperative effort to create a coordinated database of all licensed registered nurses and licensed practical or vocational nurses. This system shall include information on the licensure and disciplinary history of each licensee, as contributed by party states, to assist in the coordination of nurse licensure and enforcement efforts. b. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, the party states' nurse licensing boards shall promptly report to the coordinated licensure information system any adverse action taken against licensees, actions against multistate licensure privileges, any current significant investigative information yet to result in adverse action, and any denials of applications for licensure, and the reasons for the denials. c. Current significant investigative information shall be transmitted through the coordinated licensure information system only to the party states' nurse licensing boards. d. Notwithstanding any other provision of law to the contrary, all party states' nurse licensing boards contributing information to the coordinated licensure information system may designate information that shall not be shared with nonparty states or disclosed to other individuals or entities without the express permission of the contributing party state. e. Any personally identifiable information obtained by a party state nurse licensing board from the coordinated licensure information system shall not be shared with nonparty states or disclosed to other individuals or entities except to the extent permitted by the laws of the party state contributing the information. f. Any information contributed to the coordinated licensure information system that is subsequently required to be expunged by the laws of the party state contributing that information shall be expunged from the coordinated licensure information system. g. The compact administrators, acting jointly and in consultation with the administrator of the coordinated licensure information system, shall formulate necessary and proper procedures for the identification, collection and exchange of information under this compact. Article VIII. Compact Administration and Interchange of Information. 9. a. The executive director of the nurse licensing board of each party state, or the executive director's designee, shall be the administrator of this compact for that state. b. In New Jersey, the administrator of this compact shall be the Director of the Division of Consumer Affairs in the Department of Law and Public Safety or the director's designee. c. To facilitate the administration of this compact, the compact administrator of each party state shall furnish to the compact administrators of all other party states any information and documents concerning each licensee, including a uniform data set of investigations, identifying information, licensure data, and disclosable alternative program participation information. d. Compact administrators shall develop uniform rules and regulations to facilitate and coordinate implementation of this compact. These uniform rules shall be adopted by party states, pursuant to Article VI of this compact. Article IX. Immunity. 10. A party state, and the officers, employees, or agents of a party state's nurse licensing board, who act in accordance with this compact shall not be liable for any good faith act or omission committed while they were engaged in the performance of their duties under this compact. Good faith shall not include willful misconduct, gross negligence or recklessness. Article X. Effective Date, Withdrawal and Amendment. 11. a. This compact shall become effective as to any state when it has been enacted into the laws of that state. A party state may withdraw from the compact by enacting a statute repealing the compact, but the withdrawal shall not take effect until six months after the withdrawing state has given notice of the withdrawal to the compact administrators of all other party states. b. No withdrawal shall affect the validity or applicability of any report of adverse action taken by the nurse licensing board of a state that remains a party to the compact if the adverse action occurred prior to the withdrawal. c. This compact does not invalidate or prevent any nurse licensure agreement or other cooperative agreement between a party state and a nonparty state that is made in accordance with this compact. d. This compact may be amended by the party states. No amendment to this compact shall become effective and binding upon the party states until it is enacted into the laws of all party states. Article XI. Construction and Severability. 12. a. This compact shall be liberally construed so as to effectuate the purposes of the compact. The provisions of this compact shall be severable and if any phrase, clause, sentence, or provision of this compact is declared to be contrary to the Constitution of the United States or the constitution of the party states, or the applicability thereof to any government, agency, person, or circumstance is held invalid, the validity of the remainder of this compact and the applicability thereof to any government, agency, person, or circumstance may not be affected. If this compact is held to be contrary to the constitution of a party state, this compact shall remain in full force and effect as to the remaining party states, and to the party state affected as to all severable matters. b. In the event party states find a need for settling disputes arising under this compact, the party states shall submit the issues in dispute to an arbitration panel that shall consist of an individual appointed by the compact administrator in the home state, an individual appointed by the compact administrator in the remote states involved, and an individual appointed by the compact administrators of all of the party states involved in the dispute. The decision of a majority of the arbitrators shall be final and binding. L.2001,c.340,s.1; per s.9, expires January 1, 2007.
