Bill > H2262

This bill aims to enhance the registration and oversight of the podiatric profession in Massachusetts. It establishes a Board of Registration in Podiatry within the Board of Registration in Medicine, consisting of five members, three of whom must have at least seven years of podiatry practice in the state. The bill also allows the Board of Registration in Medicine to review and approve regulations proposed by the Podiatry Board, and requires the Podiatry Board to promulgate regulations jointly with the Board of Registration in Medicine to ensure that podiatrists are subject to requirements similar to those that physicians face under the Board of Registration in Medicine, such as the creation and public dissemination of individual profiles, licensure restrictions, disciplinary actions, and the investigation of complaints.
