If the Commission finds an individual unable to practice because of the reasons set forth in this subsection (c), the Commission may require that individual to submit to care, counseling, or treatment by physicians approved or designated by the Commission as a condition, term, or restriction for continued, reinstated, or renewed licensure to practice or, in lieu of care, counseling, or treatment, the Commission may file a complaint to immediately suspend, revoke, or otherwise discipline the license of the individual. An individual whose license was granted, continued, reinstated, renewed, disciplined, or supervised subject to such terms, conditions, or restrictions and who fails to comply with such terms, conditions, or restrictions, shall be referred to the Director for a determination as to whether the individual shall have his or her license suspended immediately, pending a hearing by the Department.
In instances in which the Director immediately suspends a person's license under this subsection (c), a hearing on that person's license must be convened by the Department within 15 days after the suspension and completed without appreciable delay. The Commission or the Department shall have the authority to review the subject individual's record of treatment and counseling regarding the impairment to the extent permitted by applicable State and federal statutes and regulations safeguarding the confidentiality of medical records.
An individual licensed under this Act and affected under this subsection (c) shall be afforded an opportunity to demonstrate to the Commission that he or she can resume practice in compliance with acceptable and prevailing standards under the provisions of his or her license.
