Alaska HB340 establishes the Dietitian Licensure Compact to facilitate interstate practice of dietetics.

Alaska HB340 creates the Dietitian Licensure Compact, allowing dietitians to practice across states without needing multiple licenses. The Compact preserves state regulatory authority while enabling licensed dietitians to obtain a Compact Privilege in other member states. This privilege is contingent on meeting specific criteria, including holding an unencumbered license in the home state and completing required background checks. The Compact Commission, established by member states, oversees the Compact, including rulemaking, data system management, and dispute resolution.
