Bill overview
This bill establishes the PA Licensure Compact, allowing physician assistants licensed in participating states to practice in other member states without obtaining a new license. It outlines requirements for obtaining and maintaining this compact privilege, including graduation from an accredited program, NCCPA certification, and no criminal history. The bill also creates the Nurse Licensure Compact and the Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology Interstate Compact, mirroring similar processes for nurses, audiologists, and speech-language pathologists. Finally, it requires a study of the potential impacts of these compacts on healthcare access and establishes a data system for sharing information among member states.
