Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

2 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 0 costs, 1 mixed.

Permit relief for dental anesthesia offices

Some doctor offices and small health facilities no longer need a state anesthesia permit in two cases. They are exempt if they only give medicine for anxiety or pain and the dose does not cause conscious sedation, deep sedation, or general anesthesia. They are also exempt when a licensed dentist with a dental anesthesia or sedation permit gives the anesthesia to dental patients and stays within that permit. This removes double permitting for a person licensed as both a physician and a dentist.

Where doctors can give deep anesthesia

Doctors and osteopathic doctors may only give or directly supervise general anesthesia, conscious sedation, or deep sedation in certain places. Those places are a permitted office, an exempt office, a permitted facility, an exempt facility, a licensed medical facility, or outside Nevada. This ties practice to the state permit and exemption system and bars use in other, unpermitted sites.
