• Introduced by Rep. Thomas H. Killion (R) on July 22, 2009, to establish that when treating a patient, working in a health care facility or when engaged in face-to-face contact with the public in a professional capacity, a health care practitioner must wear an identification badge displaying the practitioner's name and photograph and the license, certification or registration held by the practitioner. The bill provides an exception for health care practitioners who during a medical procedure have to wear full sterile dress.
