Understanding the Medical Board Investigation Process:

1. Complaint Filing & CCU Review
   Every case starts with a complaint—filed by a patient, peer, insurer, or anonymous party. The Central Complaint Unit (CCU) determines if the issue falls within the Board’s authority.
2. Investigation & Interviews
   If the complaint proceeds, a formal investigation begins. Investigators may conduct informal-seeming interviews that are, in reality, designed to build a case.
3. Formal Accusation
   Should violations be found, formal charges may be filed. You have only 15 days to respond or risk license suspension or revocation.
4. Administrative Hearing
   Unresolved cases go before an Administrative Law Judge who decides the outcome regarding your license.
5. Appeal Options
   If the decision is unfavorable, a Writ of Mandamus appeal can be filed in the California Superior Court.
6. License Reinstatement or Penalty Modification
   We assist in filing petitions for reinstatement or in seeking modifications to penalties and probation terms.
