Universal Citation: OR Admin Rules 847-065-0005
Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 9, September 1, 2024

A licensee's participation in the Health Professionals' Services Program (HPSP), to include inpatient evaluations or treatment in a treatment facility that exceeds 25 consecutive days, does not require an automatic suspension of a licensee, if the licensee is in compliance with their HPSP agreement and does not practice medicine, podiatry, or acupuncture during a period of impairment. If the HPSP makes a determination that the licensee has a mental health disorder that affects the ability of the licensee to safely practice, the HPSP will ask the licensee to immediately withdraw from practice. If the licensee declines, the HPSP will immediately report to the Board that the licensee has a mental health disorder that affects the ability of the licensee to safely practice, and with this report provide a copy of the evaluation upon which this determination is based.
