Chiropractic Abuse of Costs.

This bill establishes a $2,000 cap on the fees the North Carolina State Board of Chiropractic Examiners can charge chiropractors for disciplinary actions, ensuring that any settlement requiring higher payments is legally unenforceable. It also mandates that the Board keep detailed, accurate minutes of its meetings, which must include summaries of public comments and specific voting records for each motion. These changes aim to limit financial burdens on licensees during investigations and increase transparency in the Board's official proceedings. The new rules will take effect on October 1, 2026, and apply to disciplinary cases occurring on or after that date.
