148.603 FORMS OF DISCIPLINARY ACTIONS.
When grounds exist under section 148.57, subdivision 3, or other statute or rule which the
board is authorized to enforce, the board may take one or more of the following disciplinary
actions, provided that disciplinary or corrective action may not be imposed by the board on
any regulated person except after a contested case hearing conducted pursuant to chapter 14 or
by consent of the parties:
(1) deny an application for a credential;
(2) revoke the regulated person's credential;
(3) suspend the regulated person's credential;
(4) impose limitations on the regulated person's credential;
(5) impose conditions on the regulated person's credential;
(6) censure or reprimand the regulated person;
(7) impose a civil penalty not exceeding $10,000 for each separate violation, the amount of
the civil penalty to be fixed so as to deprive the person of any economic advantage gained by
reason of the violation or to discourage similar violations or to reimburse the board for the cost
of the investigation and proceeding. For purposes of this section, the cost of the investigation
and proceeding may include, but is not limited to, fees paid for services provided by the Office
of Administrative Hearings, legal and investigative services provided by the Office of the
Attorney General, court reporters, witnesses, reproduction of records, board members' per diem
compensation, board staff time, and travel costs and expenses incurred by board staff and board
members; or
(8) when grounds exist under section 148.57, subdivision 3, or a board rule, enter into
an agreement with the regulated person for corrective action which may include requiring the
regulated person:
(i) to complete an educational course or activity;
(ii) to submit to the executive director or designated board member a written protocol or
reports designed to prevent future violations of the same kind;
(iii) to meet with a board member or board designee to discuss prevention of future violations
of the same kind; or
(iv) to perform other action justified by the facts.
Listing the measures in clause (8) does not preclude the board from including them in an
order for disciplinary action.
