SCS HB 866 -- COMPLAINTS AGAINST CERTAIN LICENSED PROFESSIONALS

This bill allows the State Board of Registration for the Healing
Arts and the State Committee for Social Workers within the
Department of Insurance, Financial Institutions and Professional
Registration to remove unsubstantiated complaints made against
licensed social workers and physicians by offenders who have been
ordered into custody, detained, or held by the Department of
Mental Health as sexually violent predators.  Upon the written
request of a licensed social worker or physician subject to a
complaint prior to August 28, 2009, by these offenders that did
not result in disciplinary action, the appropriate committee or
board must destroy all documentation regarding the complaint,
notify any other licensing board that was previously notified of
the complaint of its actions, and send a letter to the licensee
clearly stating that the complaint was unsubstantiated.
