§ 42020. Diagnostic Services. Physicians rendering diagnostic services shall be specialists who are certified by their respective specialty boards, except that physicians eligible by training for the certifying examinations may be allowed three years in which to complete the final certification, or the Director may, upon the recommendation of an Advisory Credentials Committee, determine that an applicant physician possesses equivalent qualifications and may be permitted to participate as a physician specialist in the CCS program. A Credentials Committee, composed of ten American Board certified specialists of outstanding professional and personal character shall be appointed by the Director to review and advise upon the training, experience and professional ability of applicant physician specialists. This Committee shall convene for this purpose at least semiannually. Committee members will serve without compensation but shall be reimbursed for all expenses incidental to the performance of their responsibilities. This limitation does not apply to physicians on the panel as of the effective date of this regulation.
