Section 333-003-0116 - Impending Public Health Emergency: Out-of-State Health Care Providers

(1) The Division may enter into agreements with other states to facilitate the registry of out-of-state health care providers in the Registry established under these rules.

(2) During a state of emergency declared under ORS 401.165 or a state of public health emergency proclaimed under 433.441, a health care provider who is licensed, certified or otherwise authorized or permitted by the laws of another state to administer health care services and who is registered under these rules may administer health care services in this state as if the health care provider were licensed in this state. All registrants who wish to be deployed to perform within the scope of their health certification or license must comply with all emergency authorization requirements put in place by their respective Oregon regulatory and licensing body.

(3) If an out of state registrant who holds a valid health license or certification is required to be licensed or otherwise authorized by an Oregon health professional regulatory board but the out of state registrant chooses not to seek such a license or authorization, they may still participate in training and exercises, receive communications and be deployed to emergencies as qualified emergency service volunteers in a non-medical capacity, at the direction of the Division, if their out of state license can be verified.
