Further, the bill prohibits any examining board or affiliated credentialing board in the Department of Safety and Professional Services from retaliating against, discriminating against, or taking adverse action against, or denying, suspending, limiting, or revoking a credential to, a health care provider for expressing his or her professional opinions.
