The Washington State Department of Health (DOH) is warning health care professionals with Washington licenses about scammers falsely claiming to represent the DOH and reminding providers to not send money to anyone without being certain of the recipient’s identity.
The DOH will never ask providers to wire money to save a license.
If any issues do arise potentially affecting a health care professional’s Washington license, that person will receive written communication by mail and/or by email from an investigator at a verifiable Department of Health email address. That investigator would also provide a Department of Health phone number to contact with questions.
