Bill > A1912

Introduced Session

Under this bill, if an institution of higher education receives a report of alleged sexual misconduct committed by a health care professional employed by the institution, the institution will be required to promptly notify the State licensing board that issued the license to practice to the health care professional. The bill directs the licensing board to initiate an investigation concerning the information received by the institution of higher education in order to determine if disciplinary charges should be pursued or if an application to suspend or otherwise limit the health care professional's license should be initiated. The bill provides immunity from liability to institutions of higher education for good faith notifications made to licensing boards pursuant to the bill's provisions.
