Apparently it's a Texas thing (and possibly other states). Facilities that
provide OT or PT services have to be registered with the board, and your
license
will be suspended if you work at a clinic that is not registered. There
are some
exemptions.. the rule and exemptions are on page 7 of this website:

Sorry to be dense but what is a "registered" facility?? If you are not
billing insurance, and your State's practice act doesn't have any
limitations, I can't see what difference it makes where you see
patients.
