(a) The board may order a licensee to undergo one (1) or
more mental, physical or medical competency examinations by
examiners deemed appropriate by the board if it has reasonable
cause to believe that the licensee may be impaired. If a
disciplinary proceeding is pending against the licensee at the
time of the order, the proceeding shall be stayed until the
results of the examination have been finalized and submitted to
the board.

     (b) Every licensee is deemed to have consented to and
shall submit to a board ordered mental, physical, or medical
competency examination and to have waived all objections to the
production of the report of the examination to the board and the
admissibility of the report of the examination in any board
proceedings in which the licensee is or may become a respondent.
If a licensee fails to submit to an examination when ordered by
the board, the board may initiate a disciplinary proceeding
against the licensee or amend a pending complaint to include a
claim based upon a violation of this section.

    (c)   Repealed by Laws 2006, Chapter 58, § 2.

     (d) The licensee may submit additional information to the
board, including but not limited to medical reports,
consultations or laboratory reports obtained through an
examination performed by a practitioner designated by the
licensee.

     (e) The results of any board ordered mental, physical
competency or medical competency examination shall be provided
to the licensee and the board prior to any further board action.
