Description
--The Washington State Board of Osteopathic Medicine and Surgery ("Board") revoked Dr. Vernon D. Clausing's medical license and fined him $25,000. In part, the Board found Dr. Clausing committed unprofessional conduct under RCW 18.130.180 because he negligently prescribed legend drugs for other than legitimate or therapeutic purposes. Dr. Clausing appealed to the superior court, which affirmed the Board's decision. He makes these arguments on appeal: (1) the Board did not have statutory authority to take official action by telephone conference call; (2) he was denied due process because the same board members deciding his summary suspension order also ruled on the final order, constituting prejudgment and violating the appearance of fairness doctrine; and (3) the Board's decision was not based upon substantial evidence.
