THE ATTORNEY GENERAL
OF TEXAS
JIx MATrox Jul'" 30, 1990
ATTORNEY GENERAL
Honorable Tracey Bright
County Attorney
Ector County Courthouse, Rm. 218
Quessa, Texas 79761 LO-90-51
Dear Ms. Bright:
You ask the following question:
May a business which is incorporated under
the Texas Professional Corporation Act to
provide the professional services of a
Physical Therapist, hire an Occupational
Therapist as an employee?
The Professional Corporation Act, article 1528e,
V.T.C.S., provides in part:
one or more individuals, each of whom is
licensed or otherwise legally authorized to
render the same kind of professional service
within this state, may incorporate a
professional corporation by filing the
original and a copy of Articles of
Incorporation with the Secretary of
State . . . No professional corporation
organized under this Act shall render more
than one kind of professional service. . .
V.T.C.S. art. 1528e, 5 4. This office has already concluded
that physical therapists render a professional service for
purposes of article 1528e. Attorney General Opinion MW-99
(1979); see also V.T.C.S. art. 4512e (requiring license for
practice of physical therapy). It follows from the
reasoning in Attorney General Opinion MW-99 that
occupational therapists also render a professional service
for purposes of article 1528e. See V.T.C.S. art. 8851 (1983
act requiring license for practice of occupational therapy).
A professional corporation may render
professional service in this state only151s/403I-2100 St'PREMi. COURT UUILII NG
