Beverly Hills psychiatrist accused of misconduct

LOS ANGELES—A Beverly Hills psychiatrist who treated Anna Nicole Smith in the days before her death is accused of misconduct by the state's medical licensing agency.

In a July 13 filing, the Medical Board of California accuses Khristine Eroshevich of signing off on two workers' compensation and disability claims without actually examining the patients.

The examinations were done by Eroshevich's colleague in 2004 and 2006.

Eroshevich was with Smith when the former Playboy Playmate checked into the Florida hotel, where she later died of an accidental overdose.

She was convicted of two felonies in the drug trial surrounding Smith's death, but in January, a judge threw out one felony and reduced the other to a misdemeanor.

That decision is under appeal.
