An Act To Amend Title 14 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Child Care.

Where it is in the process

Plain-English Summary

This bill requires healthcare practitioners who use the title "Doctor" to also state their educational degree and license type. It also mandates that licensed healthcare practitioners wear identification name tags during patient encounters, with some exceptions. Advertisements for healthcare services must clearly state the practitioner's license type and cannot be misleading.
