Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 6, June 20, 2024
A. The
					 submission of an application for licensure to the board shall constitute and
					 operate as an authorization by the applicant to each educational institution at
					 which the applicant has matriculated, each governmental agency to which the
					 applicant has applied for any license, permit, certificate or registration,
					 each person, firm, corporation, organization or association by whom or with
					 whom the applicant has been employed as a perfusionist, each physician whom the
					 applicant has consulted or seen for diagnosis or treatment, and each
					 professional or trade organization to which the applicant has applied for
					 membership, to disclose and release to the board any and all information and
					 documentation concerning the applicant which the board deems material to
					 consideration of the application. With respect to any such information or
					 documentation, the submission of an application for licensure to the board
					 shall equally constitute and operate as a consent by the applicant to the
					 disclosure and release of such information and documentation as a waiver by the
					 applicant of any privileges or right of confidentiality which the applicant
					 would otherwise possess with respect thereto.
B. By submission of an application for
					 licensure to the board, an applicant shall be deemed to have given his consent
					 to submit to physical or mental examinations if, when, and in the manner so
					 directed by the board if the board has reasonable grounds to believe that the
					 applicant's capacity to act as a perfusionist with reasonable skill or safety
					 may be compromised by physical or mental condition, disease or infirmity, and
					 the applicant shall be deemed to have waived all objections as to the
					 admissibility or disclosure of findings, reports or recommendations pertaining
					 thereto on the grounds of privileges provided by law.
C. The submission of an application for
					 licensure to the board shall constitute and operate as an authorization and
					 consent by the applicant to the board to disclose any information or
					 documentation set forth in or submitted with the applicant's application or
					 obtained by the board from other persons, firms, corporations, associations or
					 governmental entities pursuant to this Section, to any person, firm,
					 corporation, association or governmental entity having a lawful, legitimate and
					 reasonable need therefor, including, without limitation, the perfusion
					 licensing authority of any state, the American Board of Cardiovascular
					 Perfusion, the Louisiana Department of Health and Hospitals, federal, state,
					 county or parish and municipal health and law enforcement agencies and the
					 Armed Services.
