New Consumer Notice Regulation for California Physicians
Beginning January 1, 2011, California physicians are required to inform their patients of their license type, level of education, and certification. This information must also be posted on the physician’s Web site.
Details on AB 583 are available on the Medical Board of California Web site.
The guidelines suggested here are not rules, do not constitute legal advice, and do not ensure a successful outcome. The ultimate decision regarding the appropriateness of any treatment must be made by each health care provider in light of all circumstances prevailing in the individual situation and in accordance with the laws of the jurisdiction in which the care is rendered.
