Arizona State Board of Chiropractic Examiners

Report

The Board regularly expanded complaint investigations by subpoenaing information unrelated to complaint allegations, potentially resulting in unwarranted disciplinary actions and lengthy complaint investigations; did not always apply its statutes and rules consistently among licensees; did not report allegations of criminal wrongdoing to appropriate authorities, increasing public safety risk; made progress toward reducing its complaint backlog but did not resolve most complaints within 180 days; engaged in advocacy regarding pending legislation without clear statutory authority to do so; did not comply with some State open meeting law and conflict of interest requirements; and had not established sufficient processes to ensure consistent Board practices and communication over time.
