The amendment to §175.2 increases the fees for initial and subsequent biennial permits for physician registration by $13 each.
CHAPTER 187. PROCEDURAL RULES: Amendment to §187.83, relating to Proceedings for Cease and Desist Orders, sets out the requirements for conducting a cease and desist hearing related to the unlicensed practice of medicine.
