Medical Spa Laws in Oregon

Oregon allows non-physician ownership of medical spas through an MSO model with a supervising physician. The state permits RNs to inject under physician delegation via standing orders or direct supervision. Oregon's telemedicine rules are relatively permissive—a good-faith exam may occur via telehealth if a physician-patient relationship exists and state telemedicine requirements are met. This creates moderate flexibility for owners while maintaining physician oversight.
