12 AAC 16.205 - Courtesy license
(a) The board will issue a courtesy license
to an applicant who meets the requirements of this section. A courtesy license
authorizes the licensee to practice chiropractic for a special event only. A
courtesy license does not authorize the licensee to conduct a general
chiropractic practice or to perform services outside the scope of practice
specified in the courtesy license required for that special event.
(b) An applicant for a courtesy license must
submit a complete application on a form provided by the department no later
than 45 days before the special event for which the courtesy license is
requested. A complete application includes
(1) the applicable fees established in
12 AAC 02.150;
(2) a current signed photograph of the
applicant;
(3) a certification from
the applicant certifying that the applicant is not a resident of this
state;
(4) verification of a valid
and active license to practice chiropractic in another state or other
jurisdiction for the scope of practice specified in the application;
(5) a description of the special event for
which the courtesy license is requested;
(6) the scope of practice required for the
special event;
(7) certification
that the applicant has not
(A) had a
chiropractor license suspended or revoked in any jurisdiction; and
(B) been convicted of
(i) a felony or other crime that affects the
applicant's ability to practice chiropractic competently and safely;
or
(ii) a crime involving the
unlawful procurement, sale, prescription, or dispensing of a controlled
substance listed in
AS
11.71.140-11.71.190 or conviction in another
jurisdiction of a crime having substantially similar elements;
(8) a report, issued by
the applicant's primary state of residence no earlier than 90 days before the
application, and that is equivalent to a report under AS 12.62 issued by this
state containing criminal history record information concerning the applicant;
if the applicant holds or has ever held a license in a state other than this
state to practice chiropractic, a complete application also includes a report,
issued by that state no earlier than 90 days before the application, and that
is equivalent to a report under AS 12.62 issued by this state containing
criminal history record information concerning the applicant.
(c) A courtesy license will be
issued only after the department receives the results of a background check of
the applicant from the Federation of Chiropractic Licensing Boards that reports
no disciplinary action against the applicant.
(d) The board will waive the 45-day
application deadline in (b) of this section if the board determines that the
applicant's failure to meet the application deadline is for good cause beyond
the control of the applicant. If the board grants the applicant a waiver under
this subsection, the applicant may submit a notarized copy of the applicant's
license that meets the requirements of (b)(4) of this section in place of
license verification from the other jurisdiction.
(e) A document required by (b) or (d) of this
section that is not in English must be accompanied by a certified English
translation of the document.
(f) A
courtesy license is valid for a period beginning seven days before and ending
seven days after the event for which the courtesy license was issued. A person
may not be issued more than two courtesy licenses in a 12-month
period.
(g) The holder of a
courtesy license must meet the minimum professional standards of
12 AAC 16.920 and is subject to
the discipline under
AS
08.01.075 and
AS
08.20.170.
(h) The holder of a courtesy license is
limited to the practice of chiropractic identified under
AS
08.20.100,
08.20.230, and 08.20.900, and may
not exceed the scope of practice specified in the courtesy license.
(i) The holder of a courtesy license may
offer chiropractic services only to those individuals involved with the special
event for which the courtesy license was issued, such as athletes, coaches, and
staff.
(j) In this section,
"special event" means an athletic, educational, cultural, or performing arts
event held in this state.
