Tennessee HB1203 amends healthcare provider licensing to allow for private advocacy orders during initial application interviews.
Tennessee HB1203 amends Title 63 of the Tennessee Code Annotated to allow the board to issue a license under a private advocacy order during an initial application interview. This order requires the applicant to advocate for a peer assistance program approved by the board. The necessity for such an order is tailored to the applicant's condition and its impact on their ability to practice medicine competently. Failure to maintain advocacy can lead to disciplinary action. Private advocacy orders are confidential and not public records unless formal disciplinary proceedings are initiated.
