Chapter 335

< > Effective - 28 Aug 2007 bottom

  335.097.  Board of nursing, powers, enforcement. — 1.  The president or secretary of the board of nursing may administer oaths, issue subpoenas duces tecum and require production of documents and records.  Subpoenas duces tecum shall be served by a person authorized to serve subpoenas of courts of record.  In lieu of requiring attendance of a person to produce original documents in response to a subpoena duces tecum, the board may require sworn copies of such documents to be filed with it or delivered to its designated representative.

  2.  The board may enforce its subpoenas duces tecum by applying to a circuit court of Cole County, the county of the investigation, hearing or proceeding, or any county where the person resides or may be found, for an order upon any person who shall fail to comply with a subpoena duces tecum to show cause why such subpoena should not be enforced, which such order and a copy of the application therefor shall be served upon the person in the same manner as a summons in a civil action, and if the circuit court shall, after a hearing, determine that the subpoena duces tecum should be sustained and enforced, such court shall proceed to enforce the subpoena duces tecum in the same manner as though the subpoena duces tecum had been issued in a civil case in the circuit court.

  3.  Reports made to the board under the mandated reporting requirements as defined in chapter 383 shall not be deemed a violation of the federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and the privacy rules located in the Act because the Missouri state board of nursing qualifies as a health oversight agency as defined in the HIPAA privacy rules.
