SB 933 California Senate · 2011-2012 Regular Session

Speech-language pathology and audiology: hearing aid dispensers.

Summary
Existing law, the Speech-Language Pathologists and Audiologists Licensure Act, provides for the licensure and regulation of speech-language pathologists and audiologists by the Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology and Hearing Aid Dispensers Board. Existing law, the Hearing Aid Dispensers Law, also provides for the licensure and regulation of hearing aid dispensers by the board. Existing law establishes the Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology Fund for the purposes of carrying out the provisions of the Speech-Language Pathologists and Audiologists Licensure Act and the Hearing Aid Dispensers Law. Existing law establishes the Hearing Aid Dispensers Account in the fund and requires fees collected pursuant to the Hearing Aid Dispensers Law to be deposited in the account for the purposes of carrying out the provisions of that law and the Speech-Language Pathologists and Audiologists Licensure Act. This bill would repeal the Hearing Aid Dispensers Law, abolish the Hearing Aid Dispensers Account, rename the Speech-Language Pathologists and Audiologists Licensure Act as the Speech-Language Pathologists and Audiologists and Hearing Aid Dispensers Licensure Act, and revise that act to include the licensing, regulatory, and disciplinary provisions applicable to hearing aid dispensers under the Hearing Aid Dispensers Law. The bill would make various technical changes relative to combining the laws applicable to speech-language pathologists and audiologists and hearing aid dispensers. This bill would incorporate additional changes in Section 205 of the Business and Professions Code proposed by SB 543, to be operative only if SB 543 and this bill are both chaptered and become effective January 1, 2012, and this bill is chaptered last.
