For any order issued in resolution of a disciplinary proceeding by the executive director, where the executive director has found misconduct sufficient to support disciplinary action, including but not limited to a violation of this chapter or an administrative rule adopted under this chapter, the executive director may require the registrant who is the subject of such finding to pay the board a sum not to exceed the reasonable cost of investigation and prosecution of the proceeding. This sum shall not exceed $5,000. This sum may be imposed in addition to any otherwise authorized administrative fines levied by the executive director as part of the penalty. The investigative and prosecution costs shall be assessed by the executive director and any sums recovered shall be credited to the office of professional licensure and certification fund and disbursed by the executive director for any future investigations of complaints and activities.
