Tennessee SB0359 amends healthcare provider licensing to allow for private advocacy orders during initial application interviews.
Tennessee SB0359 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 maintain advocacy of a peer assistance program approved by the board. The necessity for such an order must be tailored to the applicant's specific condition and its impact on their ability to practice medicine competently. Failure to maintain the required advocacy can lead to disciplinary action.
