Hello again,
I was just curious if an Orthopod and a Pod could run a business together like equal physicians? I once heard that laws prohibit that and Pods have to be hired under the Orthopod business or own their own business. Is that true or some myth? Also, can Podiatrists own a ambulatory surgery center and hire Orthopods for their services?
While shadowing another Pod just this last week, he said that in MN you could do foot + ankle + tissue up to the knee and then some Hands.
Have you heard of other states allowing some sort of work being done on hands? He mentioned something about being able to remove warts.
Also, where is this legislation for universal scope of practice? Does anyone know where this is heading if anywhere? What ever happened to the PMD discussion from the past?
Thanks for you input
