  • Title: Board trouble. What activities attract the attention of the Texas State Board of Medical Examiners.
    Author: Moran T.
    Journal: Tex Med; 1995 May; 91(5):14-7. PubMed ID: 7778046.
    Abstract:
    Every year about 45,000 Texas physicians dutifully get out their checkbooks and send off a few hundred dollars to this state institution. Besides taking the test for their licenses in the first place, mailing that yearly check marks the extent to which most Texas physicians ever come into contact with the Texas State Board of Medical Examiners (TSBME). But for a number of physicians each year, a brush with TSBME is akin to facing a medical malpractice lawsuit, only the board has the power to take away their licenses. And under the Medical Practice Act of Texas, there is no statute of limitations for bringing accusations against a physician for possible violations.
