PHYSICIANS: Provides with respect to the Louisiana State Board of Medical Examiners (OR NO IMPACT See Note)

Summary

The bill mandates that any complaint involving a doctor’s clinical decisions, diagnosis, treatment, prescribing, supervision, documentation, or standard of care must first be reviewed by a three‑member physician panel. The panel’s recommendation is advisory only, and the Louisiana State Board of Medical Examiners retains final authority on whether to dismiss, investigate further, or pursue disciplinary action. The measure also sets confidentiality rules, conflict‑of‑interest safeguards, and allows immediate board action only in emergency situations.
