QUIP is a tool used by the Board to resolve issues that present after an investigation, wherein there are reasonable grounds to believe the licensee has violated a provision of Chapter 4715, due to a clinical or communication problem that can be improved through participation in this program. QUIP gives the Board the ability to offer to the licensee a plan to remediate a licensee’s practice deficiency without taking formal disciplinary action against the licensee. The offer to a licensee to participate in QUIP is at the discretion of the Board Supervisory Investigative Panel (SIP) which is comprised of the Board Secretary and Vice-Secretary, and is dependent upon specific criteria and requirements set forth in the Dental Practice Act.
