Board Bill Number 58 | Session 2020-2021

Summary

The proposed Board Bill would amend 14-C of Article VIII of the City of St. Louis Charter which establishes the Department of Health and Hospitals, the position of Director of Health and Hospitals and the Director's qualifications to allow persons who have been a regularly licensed practitioner of medicine and surgery in any state, the District of Columbia, or Territory of the United States and meet the eligibility requirements to be licensed as a physician and surgeon in the State of Missouri to qualify for the Director's position. The bill would disqualify persons from the Director's position that have had their license to practice medicine and surgery revoked in any state, the District of Columbia, or Territory of the United States. Finally, the bill amends those provisions concerning the division of hospitals and the Board of Hospitals to reflect that the City no longer owns or administers hospital facilities.
