Nothing in ORS 678.710 to 678.820 or the rules adopted under ORS 678.710 to 678.820 may be construed to require an individual, who is employed to administer an institution exempted under ORS 441.065 as an institution that is operated by and for persons who rely on spiritual means alone for the care and treatment of the sick, to demonstrate proficiency in any medical techniques or to meet any medical educational qualifications or medical standards not

in accord with the remedial care and treatment provided in the institution. Any license issued under ORS 678.710 to 678.820 to an individual described in this subsection shall indicate the limited extent of the authority of the individual to act as an administrator.
