Existing law, the Medical Practice Act, establishes the Medical Board of California for the licensure and regulation of physicians and surgeons. Existing law, the Osteopathic Act, establishes the Osteopathic Medical Board of California for the licensure and regulation of osteopathic physicians and surgeons. Those boards are required to adopt and administer standards for the continuing education of those licensees, and each licensee is required to demonstrate satisfaction of the continuing education requirements at specified intervals. Existing law, the Nursing Practice Act, provides for the certification and regulation of nurse practitioners by the Board of Registered Nursing, and requires the board to establish standards for continuing education, as specified. Existing law, the Physician Assistant Practice Act, establishes the Physician Assistant Board to license and regulate physician assistants, and authorizes the Physician Assistant Board to require a licensed physician assistant to complete continuing education as a condition of license renewal. This bill would require the Medical Board of California, the Osteopathic Medical Board of California, the Board of Registered Nursing, and the Physician Assistant Board to consider including in their continuing education requirements for the licensees specified above a course in infection-associated chronic conditions, including, but not limited to, long COVID.
