, AS ADDED BY P.L.119-2002,
SECTION 28, IS AMENDED TO READ AS FOLLOWS [EFFECTIVE
JULY 1, 2003]: Sec. 16. (a) A practitioner shall comply with the
standards established under this licensing program. A practitioner is
subject to the exercise of the disciplinary sanctions under subsection
(b) if the department finds that a practitioner has:
(1) engaged in or knowingly cooperated in fraud or material
deception in order to obtain a license to practice, including
cheating on a licensing examination;
(2) engaged in fraud or material deception in the course of
professional services or activities;

practitioner's ability to continue to practice competently;
(6) knowingly violated a state statute or rule or federal statute or
regulation regulating the profession for which the practitioner is
licensed;
(7) continued to practice although the practitioner has become
unfit to practice due to:
(A) professional incompetence;
(B) failure to keep abreast of current professional theory or
practice;
(C) physical or mental disability; or
(D) addiction to, abuse of, or severe dependency on alcohol or
other drugs that endanger the public by impairing a
practitioner's ability to practice safely;
(8) engaged in a course of lewd or immoral conduct in connection
with the delivery of services to the public;
(9) allowed the practitioner's name or a license issued under this
chapter to be used in connection with an individual or business
who renders services beyond the scope of that individual's or
business's training, experience, or competence;
(10) had disciplinary action taken against the practitioner or the
practitioner's license to practice in another state or jurisdiction on
grounds similar to those under this chapter;
(11) assisted another person in committing an act that would
constitute a ground for disciplinary sanction under this chapter;
or
(12) allowed a license issued by the department to be:
(A) used by another person; or
(B) displayed to the public when the license has expired, is
inactive, is invalid, or has been revoked or suspended.
For purposes of subdivision (10), a certified copy of a record of
disciplinary action constitutes prima facie evidence of a disciplinary
action in another jurisdiction.
(b) The department may impose one (1) or more of the following
sanctions if the department finds that a practitioner is subject to
disciplinary sanctions under subsection (a):
(1) Permanent revocation of a practitioner's license.
(2) Suspension of a practitioner's license.
(3) Censure of a practitioner.
(4) Issuance of a letter of reprimand.
(5) Assess a civil penalty against the practitioner in accordance
with the following:
(A) The civil penalty may not be more than one thousand
dollars ($1,000) for each violation listed in subsection (a),
except for a finding of incompetency due to a physical or
mental disability.
(B) When imposing a civil penalty, the department shall
consider a practitioner's ability to pay the amount assessed. If
the practitioner fails to pay the civil penalty within the time
specified by the department, the department may suspend the
practitioner's license without additional proceedings. However,
a suspension may not be imposed if the sole basis for the
suspension is the practitioner's inability to pay a civil penalty.
(6) Place a practitioner on probation status and require the
practitioner to:
(A) report regularly to the department upon the matters that
are the basis of probation;
(B) limit practice to those areas prescribed by the department;
(C) continue or renew professional education approved by the
department until a satisfactory degree of skill has been attained
in those areas that are the basis of the probation; or
(D) perform or refrain from performing any acts, including
community restitution or service without compensation, that
the department considers appropriate to the public interest or
to the rehabilitation or treatment of the practitioner.
The department may withdraw or modify this probation if the
department finds after a hearing that the deficiency that required
disciplinary action has been remedied or that changed
circumstances warrant a modification of the order.
(c) If an applicant or a practitioner has engaged in or knowingly
cooperated in fraud or material deception to obtain a license to
practice, including cheating on the licensing examination, the
department may rescind the license if it has been granted, void the
examination or other fraudulent or deceptive material, and prohibit the
applicant from reapplying for the license for a length of time
established by the department.
(d) The department may deny licensure to an applicant who has had
disciplinary action taken against the applicant or the applicant's license
to practice in another state or jurisdiction or who has practiced without
a license in violation of the law. A certified copy of the record of
disciplinary action is conclusive evidence of the other jurisdiction's
disciplinary action.
(e) The department may order a practitioner to submit to a
reasonable physical or mental examination if the practitioner's physical
or mental capacity to practice safely and competently is at issue in a
disciplinary proceeding. Failure to comply with a department order to
submit to a physical or mental examination makes a practitioner liable
to temporary suspension under subsection (j).
(f) Except as provided under subsection (g) or (h), a license may not
be denied, revoked, or suspended because the applicant or holder has
been convicted of an offense. The acts from which the applicant's or
holder's conviction resulted may, however, be considered as to whether
the applicant or holder should be entrusted to serve the public in a
specific capacity.
(g) The department may deny, suspend, or revoke a license issued
under this chapter if the individual who holds the license is convicted
of any of the following:
(1) Possession of cocaine, a narcotic drug, or methamphetamine
under
IC 35-48-4-6.

under
IC 35-48-4-4.6.

IC 35-41-5-2
to commit an offense listed in
clauses (1) through (8).
(10) Attempt under
IC 35-41-5-1
to commit an offense listed in
clauses (1) through (9).
(11) An offense in any other jurisdiction in which the elements of
the offense for which the conviction was entered are substantially
similar to the elements of an offense described under clauses (1)
through (10).
(12) A violation of any federal or state drug law or rule related to
wholesale legend drug distributors licensed under
IC 25-26-14.
(i) A decision of the department under subsections (b) through (h)
may be appealed to the commission under
IC 4-21.5-3-7.
(j) The department may temporarily suspend a practitioner's license

process if the department finds that a practitioner represents a clear and
immediate danger to the public's health, safety, or property if the
practitioner is allowed to continue to practice.
(k) On receipt of a complaint or an information alleging that a
person licensed under this chapter has engaged in or is engaging in a
practice that jeopardizes the public health, safety, or welfare, the
department shall initiate an investigation against the person.
(l) Any complaint filed with the office of the attorney general
alleging a violation of this licensing program shall be referred to the

authorized action at the time of the filing.
(m) The department shall conduct a fact finding investigation as the
department considers proper in relation to the complaint.
(n) The department may reinstate a license that has been suspended

competency to the public. As a condition of reinstatement, the
department may impose disciplinary or corrective measures authorized
under this chapter.
(o) The department may not reinstate a license that has been
revoked under this chapter. An individual whose license has been
revoked under this chapter may not apply for a new license until seven

application of sanctions authorized in this chapter. Significant
departures from prior decisions involving similar conduct must be

the commission. The practitioner may not surrender the practitioner's
license without the written approval of the department, and the
department may impose any conditions appropriate to the surrender or
reinstatement of a surrendered license.
(r) A practitioner who has been subjected to disciplinary sanctions
may be required by the commission to pay the costs of the proceeding.
