Here's a little background, I am the office manager for a private OD in Washington state. He is getting close to retirement age, and recently met with an Lawyer regarding a will. The Lawyer asked what would happen with the practice if the OD passed away, his reply was that it would be up to the executor of the will and the office manager to figure that out.
I do not have an LDO (I've been in the field for 15 years), WA requires an LDO, or working under an OD to dispense glasses and contacts. In this horrible situation, could I keep the practice open for patients to get their glasses and contacts as well as settle business affairs, or would I have to hire an LDO to take care of the dispensing. Has anyone been in this type of situation?.
Thank you.
