A fully executed protection agreement of an individual
volunteer health care provider or protected clinic as eligible for
participation in the VHCPP by the applicable state licensing board and the
department is solely a determination that the state will defend and indemnify
the individual volunteer health care provider or the protected clinic to the
extent provided by Iowa Code section
135.24
and these rules. The protection is not an approval or indication of ability or
competence and may not be represented as such. The protected clinic or sponsor
entity through which the individual volunteer health care provider provides
free health care services shall retain responsibility for determining that
health care personnel are competent and capable of adequately performing the
health care services to be provided.
