Arizona HB2209 prohibits health boards from retaliating against individuals who make protected disclosures.

Arizona HB2209 amends state law to prohibit health profession regulatory boards from taking retaliatory actions against individuals who make protected disclosures. A protected individual establishes a prima facie case of retaliation by showing they made a protected disclosure and that a retaliatory action occurred within two years. If a prima facie case is established, the board must prove the action would have occurred regardless of the disclosure. The bill allows protected individuals to request investigations by the attorney general or county attorney.
