As you may be aware, the Kansas Board of Healing Arts (KSBHA) has been updating its website. This article highlights some of their recently updated information and resources for providers.

COVID-19 Information Portal

Located on the upper left side of the KSBHA homepage, the portal provides licensed clinicians with up-to-date emergency actions and guidance statements.

Education/Outreach Tab

By clicking Education/Outreach tab – located in the line of tabs at the top of the KSBHA homepage – you’ll find a list of upcoming educational events and a list of direct educational presentations delivered by the KSBHA team to interested providers and practices. Also included under the Education/Outreach tab are video recordings and slides from past education presentations.

Spotlight Presentation

One such recorded presentation, KSBHA: Recent & Upcoming Issues in Professional Licensing Law & Legislation, delivered by Tucker Poling, KSBHA executive director, provides in-depth information on the issues directly affecting providers and practices today and into the near future, including:

• Licensure portability issues;
• Scope of practice issues;
• Newly licensed professions;
• The COVID-19 Emergency Statute;
• New/updated regulations; and
• New/updated Board policies.

We encourage KAMMCO members to access these updated resources on the KSBHA website to stay informed and to keep their practices running smoothly in the licensure arena.
