A health regulatory board may recover reasonable administrative costs, not to exceed $1,500, associated with investigation, disciplinary proceedings, monitoring, and confirming compliance with any terms and conditions imposed from any person who is (i) licensed, registered, permitted, certified, or issued a multistate or compact licensure privilege by any health regulatory board and (ii) issued a finding of a violation of law or regulation from such health regulatory board. All administrative costs recovered pursuant to this section shall be paid to the health regulatory board by the person licensed, registered, permitted, certified, or issued a multistate or compact licensure privilege. Such administrative costs shall be deposited into the account of the health regulatory board and shall not constitute a fine or penalty. A health regulatory board shall establish specific schedules of administrative costs to be recovered pursuant to this section and shall publish such cost schedule prior to imposing any costs on a regulant.
