Board of Medical Practice membership modified, requirements established for complaint review committee membership and processes, provider profiles information on Board website requirements established, posted information requirements established, and audit required.

This bill modifies the composition of Minnesota's Board of Medical Practice by increasing the total number of members from 16 to 17, including eight public members who must meet specific criteria related to healthcare advocacy, communication skills, and community connections to diverse populations. It also establishes new requirements for the board's complaint review committee, mandates that provider profiles on the Board's website include specific information, and requires the posting of certain data at patient contact points. Additionally, the bill clarifies confidentiality rules for board communications while making disciplinary actions and settlement agreements public records, and requires an audit of board operations. These changes take effect on January 1, 2027, and affect the governance structure, transparency, and accountability of the state's medical licensing board.
