A state agency that licenses and regulates physicians and acupuncturists

The Board has significant authority over licensees, establishing regulations by proposing legislation or adopting administrative rules. Correspondingly, the Board is charged with enforcing these rules and laws to protect the public from licensees who do not practice medicine and acupuncture within prevailing and acceptable standards of the practices of medicine and acupuncture. The Board also issues cease and desist notices to persons who practice medicine and/or acupuncture without a Board-issued license.
