A concern about the person giving care
PA stands for physician assistant, a person who gives medical care under a doctor's supervision and has their own license from a doctor board.
Medical-doctor complaints, and complaints about PAs licensed by the medical board, go to that board.
The osteopathic board handles complaints about its doctors and the PAs it licenses.
A complaint about a nurse or nurse practitioner goes to Nevada's nursing board.
Use the person's license type to choose the route. For a PA, ask which board issued the PA's own license.
A concern about the pharmacy or a medicine
Nevada's pharmacy board accepts complaints about pharmacists and pharmacies, but does not handle pricing, billing or customer-service disputes.
For an ordinary billing mistake, start with the pharmacy or care service that sent the bill. Ask its billing staff to explain each charge and correct any error. Keep the bill and their reply. If insurance was billed, ask your plan to explain its payment too. If you suspect fraud, use the Attorney General route below.
Patients can report drug problems to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) through MedWatch, its safety-reporting service.
A concern about fraud
The Nevada Attorney General accepts formal consumer-fraud complaints, including health-care fraud.
That office cannot give personal legal advice or act as a person's lawyer.
Keep the website page, label, payment record and messages relevant to the concern. Describe what happened in your own words.
