relative to office of professional licensure and certification investigations.

SB 185 sets strict time limits for investigations into professional misconduct allegations handled by New Hampshire's Office of Professional Licensure and Certification (OPLC). Within 30 days of receiving an allegation, the OPLC must determine if it constitutes misconduct; if yes, the investigation must be completed within 60 days. This applies to all licensed professionals regulated under the OPLC, such as healthcare providers and attorneys. The bill requires the OPLC to report findings to the relevant board at its next meeting, with boards able to extend timelines or make final decisions if investigations are incomplete.
