Texas Department of State Health Services v. AM

Facts: Our client A.M., faced a complaint filed by the Department alleging that our client falsified a medical report and allowed a subordinate to practice outside his scope. The Department pursued the matter through the investigative phase and argued that our client committed acts which required discipline.

Outcome: Through negotiations with staff counsel, Bertolino LLP, was able to modify the language regarding the finding of facts within the proposed agreed order and afforded the client only a simple reprimand within the order. Therefore, the order issued no requirements or conditions against the client.
