Page 1 of 1 304.17A-275 Health benefit plan not to discriminate against physician on basis of degree in medicine or osteopathy. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no health benefit plan shall discriminate with <br>respect to employment, staff, privileges, or the provision of professional services against <br>a physician licensed to practice medicine on the basis of whether the physician holds a <br>medical doctor (M.D.) or doctor of osteopathy (D.O.) degree. Effective: July 14, 2000 <br>History: Created 2000 Ky. Acts ch. 413, sec. 4, effective July 14, 2000. <br>Legislative Research Commission Note (7/14/2000). Although 2000 Ky. Acts ch. 413, sec. 4, indicated that a new section of KRS Chapter 17A was being created, it is clear <br>from the subject matter of the section that it was intended instead to create a new <br>section of Subtitle 17A of KRS Chapter 304. Under KRS 7.136(1), this manifest <br>clerical or typographical error has been corrected by codifying the section in Subtitle <br>17A of KRS Chapter 304.
