R046-26AP
Summary
Nevada's Board of Medical Examiners adopted Regulation R046-26, filed September 24, 2026, amending licensure rules for physicians, physician assistants, genetic counselors, anesthesiologist assistants, perfusionists, and respiratory care practitioners. Key changes include expanded reapplication bars after license denial, new appeal rights, revised endorsement examination requirements, prohibition on requiring patients to waive civil action rights, and updated respiratory care and perfusionist accreditation standards.
What this may mean
The regulation prohibits Nevada-licensed physicians and physician assistants from conditioning care on a patient's waiver of the right to file a civil action, expanding an existing prohibition that previously covered only complaints to the Board. Endorsement applicants for medical licensure now face examination passage requirements that may be waived only by Board action, and respiratory care programs must be approved by the Commission on Accreditation for Respiratory Care.
