The Legislature on Thursday launched a special inquiry into the Arizona Medical Board after two senior lawmakers said they received "serious allegations" concerning the board, which licenses and regulates physicians. A House-Senate oversight panel authorized the special performance audit requested by Sen. Carolyn Allen, R-Scottsdale, and Rep. Deb Gullett, R-Phoenix, who chair their respective houses' health committees. It will be conducted by the Auditor General's Office.
