Summary
This bill would permit maxillofacial surgeons who have: A) been certified by the State Education Department and the American Board of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, and have B) been granted privileges to perform certain oral and maxillofacial surgery procedures by a general hospital to perform the same oral and maxillofacial procedures regardless of its relation to the oral cavity. It would eliminate the need to rely on the emergency exception for those surgeons who do perform such procedures.
Title
Provides for the certification of and qualifications for dentists practicing oral and maxillofacial surgery; includes such dentist within provisions of law regulating office-based surgery; provides for a study of whether an oral and maxillofacial surgery profiling program should be established; and provide that in an oral and maxillofacial surgery malpractice action, only a physician may be called as an expert witness at trial.
