reinstated, renewed, disciplined, or supervised subject to
such terms, conditions, or restrictions and who fails to comply
with such terms, conditions, or restrictions shall be referred
to the Secretary Director for a determination as to whether the
person shall have his or her license suspended immediately,
pending a hearing by the Department.
    In instances in which the Secretary Director immediately
suspends a person's license under this Section, a hearing on
that person's license must be convened by the Department within
15 days after the suspension and completed without appreciable
delay. The Department shall have the authority to review the
subject person's record of treatment and counseling regarding
the impairment, to the extent permitted by applicable federal
statutes and regulations safeguarding the confidentiality of
medical records.
    A person licensed under this Act and affected under this
Section shall be afforded an opportunity to demonstrate to the
Department that he or she can resume practice in compliance
with acceptable and prevailing standards under the provisions
of his or her license.
