2021 Colorado Code|Title 12 - Professions and Occupations|Article 250 - Naturopathic Doctors|§ 12-250-121. Repeal of Article - Subject to Review - Definition

  This article 250 is repealed, effective September 1, 2029. Before the repeal, the registration of naturopathic doctors is scheduled for review in accordance with section 24-34-104.      In conducting its review, the department shall gather and include in its report information from naturopathic doctors regarding the number of children under two years of age that naturopathic doctors treated, the conditions for which naturopathic doctors treated children under two years of age, and the number and description of any adverse events that occurred in connection with treating children under two years of age. Additionally, the department shall review written collaborative agreements kept on file by naturopathic doctors pursuant to section 12-250-106 (2)(e)(III) and include a summary of those agreements in its report.    As used in this subsection (2), “adverse event” means any harm to a child under two years of age that the treating naturopathic doctor is aware of and that resulted or likely resulted from the naturopathic doctor's care of the child. Reporting an adverse event to the department pursuant to this section does not, alone, constitute grounds for discipline pursuant to section 12-250-113.         History.

2021 Colorado Code|Title 12 - Professions and Occupations|Article 265 - Nursing Home Administrators|§ 12-265-115. Mental and Physical Examination of Licensees

     If the board has reasonable grounds to believe that a licensee or temporary license holder is unable to practice with reasonable skill and safety to residents because of a condition described in section 12-265-113 (1)(g) or (1)(h), it may require the person to submit to a mental or physical examination by a physician or other licensed health-care professional it designates. Upon the failure of the person to submit to the mental or physical examination, unless due to circumstances beyond the person's control, the board may suspend the person's license until the person submits to the required examinations.    Every licensee or temporary license holder, by engaging in the practice of nursing home administration in this state or by applying for the renewal of a license or temporary license, shall be deemed to have given consent to submit to a mental or physical examination when so directed in writing by the board. The direction to submit to an examination shall contain the basis of the board's reasonable grounds to believe that the licensee is unable to practice with reasonable skill and safety to residents because of a condition described in section 12-265-113 (1)(g) or (1)(h). The licensee shall be deemed to have waived all objections to the admissibility of the examining physician's or other licensed health-care professional's testimony or examination reports on the ground of privileged communication.       Nothing in this section shall prevent the licensee from submitting testimony or examination reports of a physician or other licensed health-care professional designated by the licensee that pertains to a condition described in section 12-265-113 (1)(g) or (1)(h) that may be considered by the board in conjunction with, but not in lieu of, testimony and examination reports of the physician or other licensed health-care professional designated by the board.    The results of any mental or physical examination ordered by the board shall not be used as evidence in any proceeding other than one before the board and shall not be deemed public records nor made available to the public.

  Disciplinary proceedings may be commenced when the board has reasonable grounds to believe that a licensee under the board's jurisdiction has committed acts in violation of section 12-265-113.    Disciplinary proceedings shall be conducted in the manner prescribed by section 12-20-403 and article 4 of title 24, and the hearing and opportunity for review shall be conducted pursuant to those laws by the board or an administrative law judge, at the board's discretion.    No previously issued license to engage in the practice of nursing home administration shall be revoked or suspended until a hearing has been conducted pursuant to section 24-4-105 or, for emergency situations, pursuant to section 24-4-104 (4). The denial of an application to renew an existing license shall be treated in all respects as a revocation.      Complaints, investigations, hearings, meetings, or any other proceedings of the board conducted pursuant to the provisions of this article 265 and relating to disciplinary proceedings are exempt from the provision of any law requiring that proceedings of the board be conducted publicly or that the minutes or records of the board with respect to action of the board taken pursuant to the provisions of this article 265 be open to public inspection; except that this exemption applies only when the board, or an administrative law judge acting on behalf of the board, specifically determines that it is in the best interest of a complainant or other recipient of services to keep the proceedings or documents relating thereto closed to the public, or if the licensee is violating section 12-265-113 (1)(g), participating in good faith in a substance use disorder treatment program approved by the board or designed by the board to end any addiction or dependency specified in that section, and the licensee has not violated any provisions of the board order regarding participation in such a treatment program. If the board determines that it is in the best interest of a complainant or other recipient of services to keep the proceedings or documents relating thereto closed to the public, then the final action of the board is open to the public without disclosing the name of the client or other recipient.    Section 12-20-408 governs judicial review of final board actions and orders appropriate for judicial review.       The board may send a confidential letter of concern to a licensee under the circumstances specified in section 12-20-404 (5).
