Existing law, the Licensed Physicians and Dentists from Mexico Pilot Program, allows licensed physicians and dentists from Mexico to be issued a license by the Medical Board of California or the Dental Board of California to practice medicine or dentistry in California for a period not to exceed 3 years and establishes requirements for the participants in the program, including that a physician from Mexico, before leaving Mexico, is required to satisfactorily complete a 6 months orientation program that addressees specified topics and is approved by the Medical Board of California. Existing law also requires dentists that participate in the program to enroll and complete an orientation program that focuses on specified topics. This bill would remove the requirement that the orientation program for physicians be 6 months in length. The bill would require the Medical Board of California and the Dental Board of California to convene interested parties meetings in order for the boards to determine and establish the appropriate duration of the orientation programs under their respective oversights. This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
