The North Carolina Medical Board has approved a final draft rule on Advertising of Specialty and Board Certification which can be viewed here. However, it is not yet known when the current language will be filed for publication and final adoption.  You can also view the Medical Board’s Advertising Task Force Report, which was used to develop the final policy, by clicking here.  As written, the rule applies only to advertising standards and does not impact licensure requirements or physician credentialing.
