Comment  
The commenters stated that the Part II Clinical Skills Patient Encounter examination  
requirement should be removed for 2021 and any future year where that portion of the  
examination is not offered.  
Department’s  
Rule 338.8104 is not included in the proposed draft rules, so the requested change cannot be made as it  
would violate the Administrative Procedures Act. The board has already voted to open the rules once the  
current draft rules are promulgated with the intent to amend rule 104. The comments received will be  
considered by the board and the department when the rules are reopened.
