Bill Summary

(Note: This summary applies to this bill as introduced and does not reflect any amendments that may be subsequently adopted. If this bill passes third reading in the house of introduction, a bill summary that applies to the reengrossed version of this bill will be available at http://leg.colorado.gov.)

The bill allows a regulator of the following professions and occupations to require an applicant for a license, certification, or registration to submit to a fingerprint-based criminal history record check (fingerprint-based record check):

• Audiologists;
• Certified midwives;
• Cremationists;
• Dental hygienists;
• Dentists;
• Embalmers;
• Funeral directors;
• Licensed professional counselors;
• Mortuary science practitioners;
• Natural reductionists;
• Occupational therapists;
• Occupational therapy assistants;
• Physician assistants;
• Social workers; and
• Speech-language pathologists.

An applicant submitting to a fingerprint-based record check must pay the costs associated with the fingerprint-based record check.

If an applicant's fingerprint-based record check reveals a record of arrest without a disposition, the applicant must submit to a name-based judicial record check.

A local government entity is authorized to perform a fingerprint-based record check when a statute, rule, ordinance, or regulation requires an individual to submit to a fingerprint-based record check.

The bill also defines terms to clear ambiguity about who is eligible to submit to, who is eligible to receive records from, and the type of records an entity may receive from a fingerprint-based record check.
