4 CCR 738-1.9 - Duty to Self-Report Certain Medical Conditions (Section 12-200-112, C.R.S.)
A. No later than thirty days from the date a
physical or mental illness or condition that affects a licensee's ability to
perform acupuncture services with reasonable skill and safety, the licensee
shall provide the Director, in writing, the following information:
1. The diagnosis and a description of the
illness or condition;
2. The date
that the illness or condition was first diagnosed;
3. The name of the current treatment provider
and documentation from the current treatment provider confirming the diagnosis,
date of onset, and treatment plan; and
4. A description of the acupuncturist's
practice and any modifications, limitations or restrictions to that practice
that have been made as a result of the illness or condition.
B. The licensee shall notify the
Director of any worsening of any worsening of the illness or condition, or any
significant change in the illness or condition that affects the licensee's
ability to practice with reasonable skill and safety, within thirty days of the
change of the illness or condition. The acupuncturist shall provide to the
Director, in writing, the following information:
1. The name of the current treatment
provider, documentation from the current treatment provider confirming the
change of the illness or condition, the date that the illness or condition
changed, the nature of the change of the illness or condition, and the current
treatment plan; and
2. A
description of the licensee's practice, and any modifications, limitations, or
restrictions to that practice that have been made as a result of the change of
condition.
C. Compliance
with this Rule is a prerequisite for eligibility to enter into a Confidential
Agreement with the Director pursuant to section
12-200-112(1),
C.R.S. However, mere compliance with this rule does not require the Director to
enter into a Confidential Agreement. Rather, the Director will evaluate all
facts and circumstances to determine whether a Confidential Agreement is
appropriate.
D. If the Director
discovers that a licensee has a mental or physical illness or condition that
affects the licensee's ability to practice with reasonable skill and safety,
and the licensee has not timely notified the Director of such illness or
condition, the licensee may be subject to disciplinary action pursuant to
section 12-200-109(1)(l),
C.R.S.
