(1) (a) The president of the board shall
establish a licensing panel consisting of four members of the board as follows:

(I) One member who is a licensed physician having the degree of doctor of
medicine;

(II) One member who is a licensed physician having the degree of doctor of
osteopathy;

(III) One member who is a public member of the board; and

(IV) One member who is a physician assistant member of the board.

(b) The president may rotate the licensing panel membership and the
membership on the inquiry and hearing panels established pursuant to section 12-240-125 so that all members of the board, including the board president, may serve
on each of the board panels.

(c) If the president determines that the board lacks a member to serve on the
licensing panel that meets the criteria specified in subsection (1)(a) of this section,
the president may appoint another board member to fill the vacancy on the panel.

(2) The licensing panel shall review and make determinations on applications
for a license under this article 240.

(3) The licensing panel shall review and resolve matters relating to the
unlicensed practice of medicine. If it appears to the licensing panel, based upon
credible evidence in a written complaint by any person or upon credible evidence in
a motion of the licensing panel, that a person is practicing or has practiced
medicine, practiced as a physician assistant, or practiced as an anesthesiologist
assistant without a license as required by this article 240, the licensing panel may
issue an order to cease and desist the unlicensed practice. The order must set forth
the particular statutes and rules that have been violated, the facts alleged to have
constituted the violation, and the requirement that all unlicensed practices
immediately cease. The respondent may request a hearing on a cease-and-desist
order in accordance with section 12-20-405. Section 12-240-125 (9), exempting
board disciplinary proceedings and records from open meetings and public records
requirements, does not apply to a hearing or any other proceeding held by the
licensing panel pursuant to this subsection (3) regarding the unlicensed practice of
medicine. The procedures specified in section 12-20-405 apply to allegations and
orders regarding the unlicensed practice of medicine before the licensing panel.
