§ 1660. Use of title

Any person who is certified to practice as an anesthesiologist assistant in this state shall have the right to use the title "anesthesiologist assistant" and the abbreviation "A.A." No other person may assume that title or use that abbreviation, or any other words, letters, signs, or devices to indicate that the person using them is an anesthesiologist assistant. An anesthesiologist assistant shall not so represent himself or herself unless there is currently in existence a valid contract between the anesthesiologist assistant and his or her employer or supervising anesthesiologist, and unless the protocol under which the anesthesiologist assistant's duties are delegated is on file with, and has been approved by, the board.
