I am licensed by a city and I have a certification issued by a private certifying organization. The statute covers unlicensed complementary and alternative health care practitioners. Aren I exempt from the requirements?
No. Having a city-issued license or a private certification does not exempt you from these requirements. The term “unlicensed” is defined in the statute and means either 1) a person who is not licensed by a health-related licensing board in Minnesota or the Department of Health, or 2) a person who is licensed by a board other than podiatry, dentistry, chiropractic examiners, and medical practice and who does not hold themselves out as being licensed by a health-related licensing board while performing complementary or alternative health care. “Health-related licensing boards” are listed out in Minnesota Statutes, sec. 214.01, subd. 2. City licensing and private certifications are not included in the statutory definition of “health-related licensing board”.
