3 Colo. Code Regs. § 712-1.11
This Rule is promulgated pursuant to sections 12-20-204, 12-290-106(1)(a), and 12-290-117(1) and (2), C.R.S. This rule governs the licensure and conduct of licensed physician assistants and not persons performing delegated podiatric tasks pursuant to section 12-290-116(6)(c), C.R.S.
In order to engage in practice as a physician assistant in collaboration with a licensed podiatrist pursuant to the provisions of section 12-290-117, C.R.S., a physician assistant must hold a current license to practice issued by the Colorado Medical Board.
The PA must be identified as a physician assistant to patients by wearing an identification plate upon their person setting forth their name and non-abbreviated title, and (ii) is not advertised or represented in any manner which would mislead patients or the public generally.
Each licensed collaborating podiatrist shall file with the Board information required on the forms provided by the Board within thirty days of the employment of such PA, and shall notify the Board of the termination of employment of any such collaborating persons previously registered within seven days of such termination. The filing of such information shall not be deemed as an approval by the Board of the job descriptions of such collaborating persons or the adequacy of their direction and collaboration by the licensed podiatrist. However, such information will be maintained by the Board for the purposes of (i) investigating complaints against licensed podiatrists collaborating with such PAs and (ii) maintaining a registry of the licensed podiatrists and PAs.
Physician assistants are subject to the disciplinary procedures set forth in section 12-240-125, C.R.S., of the Medical Practice Act.
