Section 3-2 - Board ordered testing

(a) Applicants/licensees who have been or are now in recovery from chemical and/or alcohol impairment or for other conditions deemed appropriate for ongoing monitoring may, at the board's or its designated agent's discretion, be required to comply with board mandated testing to monitor recovery. All such applicants/licensees shall execute and deliver to the board such releases and consents as may be required to enable the board to receive reports and communicate with any such testing facility.

(b) When ordered or as agreed to by consent decree, testing shall be done at a licensed medical facility convenient to the applicant's/licensee's residence and/or place of business at intervals determined by the board or its designated agent.

(c) A certified copy of the order/consent decree ordering the testing shall be sent to the facility where the testing is to be done. Execution of the consent decree or acceptance of a license to practice medicine will constitute waiver of applicant's/licensee's objection to release of the order/consent decree to the testing facility.

(d) Test results shall be mailed directly to the board of medicine or its designated agent for inclusion in the licensee's/applicant's file. Results and documentation thereof shall be confidential board records disclosed only if included in a final order pursuant to the terms of W.S. 33-26-408(c). Results may be disseminated to other licensing agencies, credentialing authorities, etc., if specifically requested, in writing, by the applicant/licensee.

(e) All expenses for testing shall be borne by the applicant/licensee and payable directly to the lab/facility where the testing is to be done.
