For conducting the initial and retake examinations of applicants for licensure the secretary shall receive no more than Nine Hundred Dollars ($900.00) per day for each examination, and no other member shall receive more than Seven Hundred Dollars ($700.00) per day for each examination. The receipt of that compensation shall not entitle members of the board to receive or be eligible for any state employee group insurance, retirement or other fringe benefits. Any fees or income other than the maximum allowable for examining applicants for licensure as set out above shall be accounted for and may be used as needed in carrying out the provisions of this chapter. A portion of the fee charged for license renewal of dentists and dental hygienists may be used to support a program to aid impaired dentists and/or dental hygienists.
