Bill > H2175

This bill establishes a board of registration in medical physics to regulate the practice of medical physics in Massachusetts. The board will consist of 9 members, including 5 licensed medical physicists, 3 licensed physicians, and 1 representative of the general public. The bill sets forth licensing requirements for medical physicists, including education, experience, and board certification standards. It also allows the board to issue provisional licenses to individuals who do not yet meet all the requirements. The bill gives the board authority to investigate complaints, discipline licensed medical physicists, and approve education and training programs. Finally, it allows current practitioners of medical physics to continue practicing until the new licensing procedures are in place.
