1. The Board directed Rajesh Patel, MD to the Rules and Laws of Georgia and the Medical staff rules at his individual medical facility for the answers to his

questions.

2. In response to the Drs. Carolos Giron and Karen Bramblett regarding CRNA‟s administering epidural steroid injections, the Board determined that if the physician is present, ordering the medication, evaluating the patient, and directing

the CRNA, the CRNA can perform specific injections.

3. In response to Ms. Jessica Peterson regarding a dog being present in the physician‟s office – although there is no rule or law preventing this, pets should not be present in physician offices due to hygiene reasons.

4. In response to Ms. Susan Oladeji regarding a dietitian taking orders from a

physician, the Board requested additional information. 5. In response to Mr. Gary Bell, a physician is required to update the hospital

privileges section of the Physician Profile on the Medical Board‟s website whenever he/she chooses to no longer admit patients to a particular hospital.

6. In response to Mr. Ted Arkfeld, a physician should comply with the By-Laws of a

hospital for a timeframe for completing patient/chart notes after a patient

encounter, which is usually within 24 hours.

7. Dr. Summers made a motion, seconded by Dr. Butler, to accept the Position Statement on the “Unacceptability of Concurrent Respiratory Therapy.” The motion carried unanimously.

8. In response to Dorothy Davis regarding Physician Assistants (PA) doing house

calls, the Board determined that the PA must practice where the physician practices – if the physician is clinically active doing house calls, then the PA can perform house calls. Ms. Kemle, PA Ex-Officio member, agreed to work with

Ms. Davis.

9. In response to David Dziura, the Medical Board can only license physicians to practice in Georgia, not corporations. The corporate practice of medicine has not been defined by the state legislature.

10. In response to Jane Santucci, physician should not compensate patients for

referrals. 11. In response to Lisa Banker, monitoring is required as part of the standard of care

for opioid prescribing. However, a physician can document any exclusions or hardships that would prevent the monitoring from being done in a specific time

frame.
