The Federation of State Medical Boards (FSMB) has released State of the States: Physician Regulation 2009. The report focuses on three issues: streamlining licensure through the use of a uniform application, making connections that improve medical practice, and investigating complaints. The federation's uniform application, which is now used by 17 medical boards, is integrated with a license portability demonstration project. The Summary of 2008 Board Actions was also released.
