Under what condition can a certificate holder's license be automatically suspended?

A certificate holder's license can be automatically suspended for failing to pay child support. This condition is tied to legal obligations that require individuals to fulfill their financial responsibilities, particularly in matters related to dependents. When a certified professional, including a medical radiologic technologist, does not comply with court-ordered child support payments, it can lead to automatic administrative actions, such as license suspension. This measure is put in place to ensure compliance with family law, emphasizing the importance of maintaining financial support for children.

In contrast, not meeting continuing education requirements typically results in a penalty or a requirement to complete additional education, rather than automatic suspension. Involvement in a workplace dispute may warrant disciplinary action, but it doesn't directly lead to suspension unless it escalates to a violation of legal or ethical standards. Working outside of one's scope of practice can lead to disciplinary actions, but again, this is subject to investigation and typically would not result in an immediate, automatic suspension unless it poses an immediate risk to patient safety or violates specific legal mandates.
