§ 630A.225. Effect of revocation of license or certificate in another jurisdiction for gross medical negligence or other grounds; proof of rehabilitation; effect of reversal of certain convictions on appeal; investigation regarding correction or resolution of acts or conduct; regulations

1. The Board shall not issue a license to practice homeopathic medicine or a certificate

to practice as an advanced practitioner of homeopathy or as a homeopathic assistant

to an applicant who has been licensed or certified to practice any type of medicine

in another jurisdiction and whose license or certificate was revoked for gross medical

negligence by that jurisdiction. 2. The Board may revoke the license or certificate of any person who has been licensed

or certified to practice any type of medicine in another jurisdiction and whose license

or certificate was revoked for gross medical negligence by that jurisdiction. 3. The revocation of a license or certificate to practice any type of medicine in

another jurisdiction on grounds other than grounds which would constitute gross medical

negligence constitutes grounds for initiating disciplinary action or denying the issuance

of a license or certificate. 4. If a license or certificate to practice any type of medicine issued to an applicant

in another jurisdiction has been revoked or surrendered, the applicant must provide

proof satisfactory to the Board that the applicant is rehabilitated with respect to

the conduct that was the basis for the revocation or surrender of the license or certificate

when submitting an application for a license or certificate to the Board. 5. The Board shall vacate an order to deny a license or certificate if the denial

is based on a conviction of: (a) A felony for a violation or offense described in paragraph (a), (b) or (d) of

subsection 2 of NRS 630A.340 ; or (b) An offense involving moral turpitude, and the conviction is reversed on appeal. An applicant may resubmit an application for a license or certificate after a court

enters an order reversing the conviction. 6. If the Board finds that an applicant has committed an act or engaged in conduct

that constitutes grounds for initiating disciplinary action or denying the issuance

of a license or certificate as set forth in NRS 630A.340 to 630A.380 , inclusive, the Board shall investigate whether the act or conduct has been corrected

or the matter has otherwise been resolved. If the matter has not been resolved to the satisfaction of the Board, the Board,

before issuing a license or certificate, shall determine to its satisfaction whether

or not mitigating circumstances exist which prevent the resolution of the matter. 7. For the purposes of this section, the Board shall adopt by regulation a definition

of gross medical negligence.
