Organizational Structure
The WSMA supports legislation, rulemaking or administrative action that
would result in a significant organizational change in the current WMC-DOH
relationship: that administrative law judges be used to conduct hearings;
that WMC have responsibility over investigators and attorneys working for
it; and, that WMC retain all rule-making and policy-setting authority
affecting the practice of medicine and WMC operations. (EC Rpt B, A-01) (
Amended A-23)
