What is a medical board investigation?
An investigation by the medical board or nursing board starts when a complaint is filed, either by a client, competitor, or even a former employee. The board’s role is to review whether a rule, law, or standard of care was violated. Investigations can stem from issues like improper supervision, unauthorized procedures, patient complaints, or documentation problems. For MedSpa owners and practitioners, these investigations can escalate quickly and threaten licenses, careers, and business continuity. Understanding the process and responding strategically is key to achieving the best possible outcome.
