22 Tex. Admin. Code § 177.18

Current through Reg. 49, No. 49; December 6, 2024
Section 177.18 - Purpose and Scope
(a) Purpose. The purpose of this subchapter is to set forth minimum requirements relating to a physician's provision of call coverage services for another physician's established patients. In setting forth these rules, the board recognizes that a call coverage model outside of the traditional office setting between physicians who are not of the same specialty and do not provide reciprocal call coverage for each other can provide effective and safe patient care.
(b) Scope. This chapter applies to all physicians providing call coverage in Texas, regardless of the nature and scope of technology being used to provide care to patients through the call coverage relationship.
