Read first time 02/07/92.  Authorizing limited dental practice licenses for University of Washington dental residents.


     AN ACT Relating to limited dental practice for University of Washington dental residents; and amending RCW 18.32.195.

 

BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON:

 

     Sec. 1.  RCW 18.32.195 and 1991 c 3 s 69 are each amended to read as follows:

     The board may, without examination, issue a license to persons who possess the qualifications set forth in this section.

     (1) The board may, upon written request of the dean of the school of dentistry of the University of Washington, issue a license to practice dentistry in this state to persons who have been licensed or otherwise authorized to practice dentistry in another state or country and who have been accepted for employment by the school of dentistry as full-time faculty members.  For purposes of this ((section)) subsection, this means teaching members of the faculty of the school of dentistry of the University of Washington who are so employed on a one hundred percent of work time basis.  Such license shall permit the holder thereof to practice dentistry within the confines of the university facilities for a period of one year while he or she is so employed as a full-time faculty member by the school of dentistry of the University of Washington.  It shall terminate whenever the holder ceases to be such a full-time faculty member.  Such license shall permit the holder thereof to practice dentistry only in connection with his or her duties in employment with the school of dentistry of the University of Washington.  This limitation shall be stated on the license.

     (2) The board may, upon written request of the dean of the school of dentistry of the University of Washington, issue a limited license to practice dentistry in this state to university residents in postgraduate dental education.  The license shall permit the resident dentist to provide dental care only in connection with his or her duties as a university resident.

     (3) The board may condition the granting of ((such)) a license under this section with terms the board deems appropriate.  All persons licensed under this section shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the dental disciplinary board to the same extent as other members of the dental profession, in accordance with this chapter, and in addition the licensee may be disciplined by the dental disciplinary board after a hearing has been held in accordance with the provisions set forth in this chapter, and determination by the dental disciplinary board that such licensee has violated any of the restrictions set forth in this section.

     (((3))) (4) Persons applying for licensure pursuant to this section shall pay the application fee determined by the secretary and, in the event the license applied for is issued, a license fee at the rate provided for licenses generally.  After review by the board of dental examiners, licenses issued under this section may be renewed annually if the licensee continues to be employed as a full-time faculty member of the school of dentistry of the University of Washington, or a university resident in postgraduate dental education, and otherwise meets the requirements of the provisions and conditions deemed appropriate by the board of dental examiners.  Any person who obtains a license pursuant to this section may, without an additional application fee, apply for licensure under this chapter, in which case the applicant shall be subject to examination and the other requirements of this chapter.
