Current through Vol. 42, No. 1, September 16, 2024

In order to properly enforce the provisions of 59 O.S. 1971, Section 493.1(c) relative to post-graduate training, the State Board of Medical Licensure and Supervision shall each year approve sponsoring institutions and their programs which are acceptable for post-graduate training in Oklahoma.

(1) In determining which sponsoring institutions and programs shall be approved for post-graduate training, this Board shall consider among other things, the qualifications of physician educators serving in residencies in said sponsoring institutions and other facilities for giving first year post-graduate training. Physicians not eligible for full and unrestricted licensure in Oklahoma shall not be considered by this Board as qualified to train post-graduate residents.

(2) In determining the sponsoring institutions and programs that shall be approved for first year post-graduate training and residency programs, the Board shall consider as evidence of acceptability the sponsoring institution's accreditation by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME).

(3) Each sponsoring institution shall appoint an institutional official responsible for meeting reporting requirements. The following list of reportable incidents shall be reported to the Board within thirty (30) days of a final action on the part of the sponsoring institution or program:

(A) Whether any disciplinary actions relating to unprofessional conduct (as defined in Title 59 O.S., §509 and OAC 435:10-7-4 ) were taken against a resident physician in the post-graduate training program.

(B) Whether a resident physician has failed to advance in the residency program for reasons of unprofessional conduct.

(C) Whether a resident physician has been placed on restriction by the program director for reasons of unprofessional conduct.

(D) Whether any resident physician has been dismissed or terminated from the training program and the reasons for such action.

(E) Whether any resident physician has resigned from the training program while under investigation for program violations, misconduct, or unprofessional conduct.

(F) Whether any resident physician has been referred by the program director to a substance abuse program, unless the resident physician enrolls in an impaired physician program approved by the Board.

(4) Failure to report unprofessional conduct or the inability to practice safely may be grounds for disciplinary action against the supervising physician.
