Sec. 19. (a) The board may refuse to issue a license or may issue a probationary license to an applicant for licensure if:
(1) the applicant has:
(A) been disciplined by a licensing entity of another state or jurisdiction; or
(B) committed an act that would have subjected the applicant to the disciplinary process if the applicant had been licensed in Indiana when the act occurred; and
(2) the violation for which the applicant was or could have been disciplined has a bearing on the applicant's ability to competently perform or practice the profession in Indiana.
(b) The board may:
(1) refuse to issue a license; or
(2) issue a probationary license;
to an applicant for licensure if the applicant practiced without a license in violation of the law.
(c) Whenever the board issues a probationary license, the board may require a licensee to do any of the following:
(1) Report regularly to the board upon the matters that are the basis of the discipline of the other state or jurisdiction.
(2) Limit practice to the areas prescribed by the board.
(3) Continue or renew professional education requirements.
(4) Engage in community restitution or service without compensation for the number of hours specified by the board.
(5) Perform or refrain from performing an act that the board considers appropriate to the public interest or to the rehabilitation or treatment of the applicant.
(d) The board shall remove any limitations placed on a probationary license under this section if the board finds after a public hearing that the deficiency that required disciplinary action has been remedied.
