When must an event summary report be filed with the board?

An event summary report must be filed with the board within 15 calendar days after the occurrence of the event. This requirement is rooted in the need for timely communication regarding significant incidents that could impact patient safety or the professional conduct of a chiropractor. By setting a 15-day deadline, the regulatory body ensures that incidents are promptly documented and reviewed, allowing for swift action if necessary. This timeframe helps maintain the integrity of the practice and protects public health. The other options do not align with the specified legal requirement for reporting, emphasizing the importance of adhering to the established timeframe for compliance.
