Existing law establishes the Department of Health Care Access and Information to oversee and administer various health programs and to collect health data. Existing law establishes the Medical Board of California and the Osteopathic Medical Board of California for the licensure and regulation of physicians and surgeons and osteopathic physicians and surgeons. Existing law requires the boards to adopt and administer standards, including for the continuing education of those licensees.
