RULES AND REGULATIONS

Title 49--PROFESSIONAL AND VOCATIONAL STANDARDS

STATE BOARD OF MEDICINE

STATE BOARD OF NURSING

[49 PA. CODE CHS. 18 AND 21]

Corrective Amendment to 49 Pa. Code §§ 18.55(b) (4) and 21.285(b)(4)

[30 Pa.B. 6911]

   The State Boards of Medicine and Nursing (Boards) have discovered a discrepancy between the agency text of 49 Pa. Code §§ 18.55(b)(4) and 21.285(b)(4), as deposited with the Legislative Reference Bureau and the official text published at 30 Pa.B. 5943, 5950 and 5951 (November 18, 2000) and as scheduled to be published in the February 2001 Pennsylvania Code Reporter (MTS 315). Subsections (b)(4) incorrectly contained the word ''CRNP'' instead of ''physician.''

   Therefore, under 45 Pa.C.S. § 901: The Boards have deposited with the Legislative Reference Bureau a corrective amendment to §§ 18.55(b)(4) and 21.285(b)(4). The corrective amendment to §§ 18.55(b)(4) and 21.285(b)(4) is effective November 18, 2000, the date the defective text was published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin.

   The correct versions of 49 Pa. Code §§ 18.55(b)(4) and 21.285(b)(4) appear in Annex A, with ellipses referring to the existing text of the regulations.
