SB110 Guidance Documents from the Medical Board

The Ohio State Medical Board has provided guidance documents for the implementation of SB110 which became effective on October 15, 2015.

PA Permissible Services

This document outlines what a PA can and cannot do under the new law.

NOTE:  Page 2, 4730.03 ORC allows you to delegate to RNs and LPNs.  Page 3, 4730.203 ORC only restricts delegation of medications to unlicensed personnel (i.e., Medical Assistants), not to RNs.

PA Physician Supervision

This document outlines the responsibilities of the supervising physician.

Also from the Medical Board: You do not need to submit new Supervision Agreements.  You will use the new Agreement forms when the Agreements come up for renewal in 2017.  The Medical Board advises that you should create a document now that refers to the fact PAs can now delegate to non-licensed personnel.  Keep the document on file in your office.  See A-2 in this document.
