Official answers on telehealth and drug approval

As of September 30, 2026, Washington’s Uniform Telehealth Act sets the state standards for care delivered at a distance.

A statute is a law passed by lawmakers. A board bulletin explains a licensing board’s position. Check its date, which health workers it covers and what kind of care it discusses.

For a drug approval claim

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) drug directory uses a National Drug Code (NDC) to identify each product, as of September 26, 2026.

The listing uses information supplied by the company responsible for the product.

An NDC does not mean the FDA checked that information or approved the medicine.

Washington records and professional concerns

The Washington Medical Commission accepts complaints about medical doctors and physician assistants through online or printable forms.

For a nurse or nurse practitioner

Washington’s Board of Nursing takes complaints about nurses through the state’s online licensing system.

On the nursing complaint page, choose “About a nurse or nursing assistant” to start sending a complaint.

For a pharmacy or a doctor with a DO degree

The medical degree called Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine is shortened to DO.

Washington’s Department of Health handles complaints about pharmacies, doctors with a DO degree and other health workers it licenses.

It also takes reports of people working without a license.
