Amended PT Regulation: Disciplinary Guidelines

1 Apr 2022 12:31 PM | Zachary Edgar (Administrator)

The amendment to Section 1399.15 of the California Code of Regulations incorporates by reference The Physical Therapy Board’s (PTBC) Disciplinary Guidelines (6th Edition- Revised September 2020). The PTBC uses the Disciplinary Guidelines for Issuing Citations and Imposing Discipline. The PTBC made several changes to the 6th Edition Disciplinary Guidelines, to reflect regulatory changes already adopted. Additionally, a requirement was added to the Disciplinary Guidelines to inform probationers that their license will not be renewed if they do not pay probation monitoring costs. An option to reduce these cost recovery fees was removed and instead the PTBC is offering the possibility of a payment plan requiring payment 180 days prior to completing probation. Substance abuse rehabilitation program fees were removed and the PTBC also added an additional specific condition of probation, entitled “Notification of Probation Status to Assistive Personnel” and made several non-substantive changes to the Disciplinary Guidelines.
