Physician Assistant Practice Act
Illinois · Professions, Occupations, and Business Operations · §§ 225-95-1 to 225-95-9-7 · 55 sections
Overview
This act establishes the licensing and regulation of physician assistants, setting the qualifications a person must meet to be licensed, providing for licensure by endorsement, renewal, inactive status, and restoration, and requiring continuing education. It gives the state's licensing department authority to administer the act — setting fees, maintaining a roster of licensees and of those whose licenses have been suspended or revoked, and working with an advisory committee or board. It also sets out grounds for discipline and the enforcement process, including investigations, hearings before a hearing officer, subpoena power, administrative review of the resulting decisions, and penalties for unlicensed practice.
