SECTION 1050-1058
1050. A chiropractic corporation is a corporation which is registered with the State Board of Chiropractic Examiners with reference to corporations rendering professional services as chiropractors and has a currently effective certificate of registration from the board pursuant to the Professional Corporation Act, as contained in Part 4 (commencing with Section 13400) of Division 3 of Title 1 of the Corporations Code, and this article. Subject to all applicable statutes, rules and regulations, such chiropractic corporation is entitled to practice chiropractic. With respect to a chiropractic corporation, the governmental agency referred to in the Professional Corporation Act is the State Board of Chiropractic Examiners with reference to corporations rendering professional services as chiropractors. As used in this article, the "board" refers to the State Board of Chiropractic Examiners. 1051. An applicant for registration as a chiropractic corporation shall supply to the board all necessary and pertinent documents and information requested by the board concerning the applicant's plan of operations. The board may provide forms of application. If the board finds that the corporation is duly organized and existing pursuant to the General Corporation Law, that each officer as provided in Section 1055, director, shareholder and each employee who will render professional services is a licensed person as defined in the Professional Corporation Act, and that from the application it appears that the affairs of the corporation will be conducted in compliance with law and the rules and regulations of the board, the board shall upon payment of the registration fee in such amount as it may determine issue a certificate of registration. 1053. Each chiropractic corporation shall file with the board a report containing such information relating to professional corporations as may be required by board regulations as well as information required by law. The fee for filing such a report shall be fixed by the board. All reports shall be signed and verified by an officer of the corporation. 1054. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the name of a chiropractic corporation and any name or names under which it may be rendering professional services, shall contain the name or the last name of one or more of the present, prospective, or former shareholders, and shall include the word "chiropractic" and the word "corporation" or wording or abbreviations denoting corporate existence. 1055. Except as provided in Section 13403 of the Corporations Code, relating to the Professional Corporation Act, each director and each officer of a chiropractic corporation, except an assistant secretary and an assistant treasurer, shall be a licensed person as defined in the Professional Corporation Act. 1056. The income of a chiropractic corporation attributable to professional services rendered while a shareholder is a disqualified person (as defined in the Professional Corporation Act) shall not in any manner accrue to the benefit of such shareholder or his shares in the chiropractic corporation. 1057. A chiropractic corporation shall not do or fail to do any act the doing of which or the failure to do which would constitute unprofessional conduct under any statute, rule or regulation now or hereafter in effect. In the conduct of its practice, it shall observe and be bound by such statutes, rules and regulations to the same extent as a person holding a license under the Chiropractic Act. The board shall have the same powers of suspension, revocation and discipline against a chiropractic corporation as are now or hereafter authorized by the initiative measure mentioned in Section 1000 or by any other similar statute against individual licensees, provided, however, that proceedings against a chiropractic corporation shall be conducted in accordance with Chapter 5 (commencing with Section 11500) of Part 1 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code, and the board shall have all the powers granted therein. The board may formulate and enforce rules and regulations to carry out the purposes and objectives of this article, including rules and regulations requiring (a) that the articles of incorporation or bylaws of a chiropractic corporation shall include a provision whereby the capital stock of such corporation owned by a disqualified person (as defined in the Professional Corporation Act), or a deceased person, shall be sold to the corporation or to the remaining shareholders of such corporation within such time as such rules and regulations may provide, and (b) that a chiropractic corporation as a condition of obtaining a certificate pursuant to the Professional Corporation Act and this article shall provide adequate security by insurance or otherwise for claims against it by its patients arising out of the rendering of professional services. 1058. Moneys received by the board pursuant to this article shall be used to carry out the purposes of this article.
