Relating to the procedure for certain complaints against health care practitioners.

HB 861 requires healthcare licensing agencies to forward complaints about practitioners licensed by a different agency to that agency. It prohibits an agency from taking disciplinary action on such complaints unless the receiving agency refers the case back for investigation. The bill applies only to complaints filed on or after its effective date (September 1, 2025, unless passed with a two-thirds vote). This changes how complaints are handled between different healthcare licensing bodies, ensuring the correct agency investigates each case.
