Under Section 15, which combination is listed as the answer?

• A. RA 5527, RA 8981
• B. RA 5527, PD 498
• C. RA 8981, RA 11032
• D. RA 5527

Answer: (A)

Section 15 focuses on the laws that govern the regulation and practice of medical technology, highlighting how the substantive scope of practice is paired with the regulatory framework that oversees professionals in the field. The primary law that defines who may practice medical technology and what constitutes lawful practice is RA 5527. It lays out licensure requirements, standards, and the duties of those authorized to practice. Complementing this, RA 8981—the Professional Regulation Commission Modernization Act—updates and strengthens how the regulatory body oversees all licensed professions, including medical technologists, aligning regulatory processes with current standards and oversight. This pairing best fits Section 15 because it connects the actual practice authority (RA 5527) with the modernization and governance of the regulatory system (RA 8981). The other options bring in laws that aren’t directly about the regulatory framework for medical technologists: PD 498 is an older decree not central to this modern regulatory pairing; RA 11032 addresses government service delivery rather than professional licensure; and RA 5527 alone omits the contemporary regulatory overhaul captured by RA 8981.
