(a) Upon notification of the findings of an investigation, a licensee or intern may be asked to attend an informal conference with the IBM(s), Executive Director and/or the Board attorney assigned for prosecution purposes. The licensee or intern may appear either with or without counsel. The purpose of the informal conference will be to discuss formal or informal settlement of the investigative matter.
(b) At any time either before or after formal disciplinary proceedings have been instituted against a licensee or intern, the licensee or intern and IBM(s) may submit to the Board an offer of settlement whereby, in lieu of formal disciplinary action by the Board, the licensee or intern agrees to accept certain sanctions such as suspension, civil penalties, enrolling in continuing education courses, limiting the scope of the licensee's practice, submitting the licensee's work product for professional peer review, or other sanctions authorized by the Act or these rules. If the Board determines that the proposed settlement will adequately protect the public welfare, the Board may accept the offer and enter a decision that is consented to by the licensee or intern and incorporates the proposed settlement.
