BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONS CODE
SECTION 800-809.9
800. (a) The Medical Board of California, the Board of Psychology,
the Dental Board of California, the Osteopathic Medical Board of
California, the State Board of Chiropractic Examiners, the Board of
Registered Nursing, the Board of Vocational Nursing and Psychiatric
Technicians, the State Board of Optometry, the Veterinary Medical
Board, the Board of Behavioral Sciences, the Physical Therapy Board
of California, the California State Board of Pharmacy, the
Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology Board, the California Board
of Occupational Therapy, and the Acupuncture Board shall each
separately create and maintain a central file of the names of all
persons who hold a license, certificate, or similar authority from
that board. Each central file shall be created and maintained to
provide an individual historical record for each licensee with
respect to the following information:
(1) Any conviction of a crime in this or any other state that
constitutes unprofessional conduct pursuant to the reporting
requirements of Section 803.
(2) Any judgment or settlement requiring the licensee or his or
her insurer to pay any amount of damages in excess of three thousand
dollars ($3,000) for any claim that injury or death was proximately
caused by the licensee's negligence, error or omission in practice,
or by rendering unauthorized professional services, pursuant to the
reporting requirements of Section 801 or 802.
(3) Any public complaints for which provision is made pursuant to
subdivision (b).
(4) Disciplinary information reported pursuant to Section 805.
(b) Each board shall prescribe and promulgate forms on which
members of the public and other licensees or certificate holders may
file written complaints to the board alleging any act of misconduct
in, or connected with, the performance of professional services by
the licensee.
If a board, or division thereof, a committee, or a panel has
failed to act upon a complaint or report within five years, or has
found that the complaint or report is without merit, the central file
shall be purged of information relating to the complaint or report.
Notwithstanding this subdivision, the Board of Psychology, the
Board of Behavioral Sciences, and the Respiratory Care Board of
California shall maintain complaints or reports as long as each board
deems necessary.
(c) The contents of any central file that are not public records
under any other provision of law shall be confidential except that
the licensee involved, or his or her counsel or representative, shall
have the right to inspect and have copies made of his or her
complete file except for the provision that may disclose the identity
of an information source. For the purposes of this section, a board
may protect an information source by providing a copy of the material
with only those deletions necessary to protect the identity of the
source or by providing a comprehensive summary of the substance of
the material. Whichever method is used, the board shall ensure that
full disclosure is made to the subject of any personal information
that could reasonably in any way reflect or convey anything
detrimental, disparaging, or threatening to a licensee's reputation,
rights, benefits, privileges, or qualifications, or be used by a
board to make a determination that would affect a licensee's rights,
benefits, privileges, or qualifications. The information required to
be disclosed pursuant to Section 803.1 shall not be considered among
the contents of a central file for the purposes of this subdivision.
The licensee may, but is not required to, submit any additional
exculpatory or explanatory statement or other information that the
board shall include in the central file.
Each board may permit any law enforcement or regulatory agency
when required for an investigation of unlawful activity or for
licensing, certification, or regulatory purposes to inspect and have
copies made of that licensee's file, unless the disclosure is
otherwise prohibited by law.
These disclosures shall effect no change in the confidential
status of these records.
