SB421

Pennsylvania SB421 amends the Medical Practice Act of 1985 to prevent physicians from disclosing complaints unless disciplinary action is necessary.

Pennsylvania SB421 amends the Medical Practice Act of 1985 to add a provision on the disclosure of complaints filed against physicians. Under this bill, a physician is not required to disclose a complaint to any person or entity if the State Board of Medicine determines no disciplinary or corrective action is necessary and the complaint file is closed without any disciplinary or corrective action against the physician. This change aims to protect physicians from unnecessary disclosure of complaints that do not result in disciplinary measures.
