Well, a bit of interesting news. Now even the Docs think they are above the law. No doubt they will get off the hook on this, but let them sweat it out and spend a few bucks on lawyers. Only fair don’t you think?
The state Department of Regulation and Licensing and the Medical Examining Board said Wednesday that they had opened investigations into eight individuals who allegedly wrote doctor excuse notes for protesters at the state Capitol during rallies in February.
Last month, the Department of Regulation and Licensing said it had identified 11 people who may have provided the medical excuses, and it asked them to submit information about their activities at the Capitol.
The 11 were identified by complaints to the department. Nine of those named are licensed physicians and two are unlicensed, the department said.
At the conclusion of each investigation, recommendations will be made about whether disciplinary action should be pursued.
The state Department of Regulation and Licensing previously has said disciplinary action could include a reprimand, license limitations, suspension or revocation.
