Latest Text Digest

Existing law, the Physician Assistant Practice Act, establishes the Physician Assistant Board to license and regulate physician assistants. Existing law authorizes the board to convene from time to time as deemed necessary by the board. Existing law further requires the board to receive permission of the Director of Consumer Affairs to meet more than 6 times annually, and requires the director to approve meetings that are necessary for the board to fulfill its legal responsibilities.

This bill would delete the provision requiring the board to receive permission from the director to meet more than 6 times annually and for the director to approve meetings.
