Comment on Proposed "Office Based Surgery" Rule Changes

Comments due July 17

The State Medical Board of Ohio (SBMO) has filed proposed rules with the Common Sense Initiative (CSI) office. This is the second step in the rule revision process during which CSI has assessed any adverse impacts to businesses. The CSI review must be completed before a rule can be submitted for the formal rule-making process through the Joint Committee on Agency Rule Review.

During this process, public input is sought. Rules up for consideration pertain to office-based surgeries.

Comments are due by Friday, July 17.
