Which statement describes the scope of the ACO Disciplinary Review Committee's duties?

• A. It handles appeals about licensing actions only
• B. It handles appeals about both administrative fines and licensing actions
• C. It handles appeals about administrative fines only
• D. It handles training requirements appeals

Answer: (B)

The Disciplinary Review Committee is the appeals body for actions taken by the licensing/enforcement authority against ACO licenses. Its job is to review appeals of two main things: administrative fines and licensing actions (such as suspensions or revocations). Because penalties and license status both affect a licensee’s ability to practice, they fall under the committee’s review remit. Training requirements appeals, if any, are handled through different processes, not by this committee.
