The
State Medical Board is staffed by the Division of Corporations, Business and Professional
Licensing. The board consists of five physicians, one
physician assistant, and two public members. Board members
are appointed by the governor and confirmed by the Legislature.
The board adopts regulations
to carry out the laws governing the practice of Medicine
in Alaska. It makes final licensing decisions and takes
disciplinary action against people who violate the licensing
laws. The board meets four times a year and offers a
public comment period at each meeting. Meeting agendas
and minutes are available from the executive administrator.

Alaska Statutes are passed
by the Legislature. Regulations (also called the Alaska

to implement, interpret, and make specific the statutes.
Both statutes and regulations have the force of law.
AS 08.64 and regulations
12 AAC 40 specifically govern the practice of medicine.

specialist and request that your name be added to the
Medical interested parties list. Please advise us if
you move or wish your name removed from the mailing
