Participation in a diversion program shall not be a defense to any disciplinary action which may be taken by the board. This section does not preclude the board from commencing disciplinary action against a physician assistant who is terminated unsuccessfully from the program under this section. That disciplinary action may not include as evidence any confidential information.
(Amended by Stats. 2012, Ch. 332, Sec. 75. (SB 1236) Effective January 1, 2013.)
