What are the consequences for violations of false identity in the PT field?

  1. License suspension for up to a year

  2. Mandated additional training in ethics

  3. A fine not exceeding $1,000 or jail time not exceeding six months, or both

  4. Only a verbal warning is given

The correct answer is: A fine not exceeding $1,000 or jail time not exceeding six months, or both

Violations of false identity in the PT field can have serious consequences, including receiving a fine of up to $1,000 or facing jail time up to six months, or both. Option A is incorrect because license suspension is typically reserved for more severe violations. Option B is incorrect because additional training in ethics may be mandated as a preventative measure, but it is not a consequence for a specific violation. Option D is incorrect because violations of false identity are taken very seriously and a verbal warning would not be sufficient as a consequence.
