Massachusetts H2513 mandates health care practitioners to clearly display their license type and prohibits misleading titles.
Massachusetts H2513 aims to enhance health care transparency by requiring health care practitioners to visibly display their license type in their offices and through their advertisements. Practitioners must wear identification name tags during patient encounters, listing their name, license type, and expiration date. Advertisements must accurately identify the practitioner's license and avoid deceptive information. Violators face fines and imprisonment. The bill also restricts the use of titles like "physician" to those licensed as such.
