Podiatric licensure compact

Chamber Passed·2/26/26

Arizona HB2438 establishes a podiatric medical licensure compact to streamline podiatric physician licensure across member states.

Arizona HB2438 creates a podiatric medical licensure compact to facilitate the issuance of expedited licenses for podiatric physicians across member states. The compact allows eligible podiatric physicians to practice in multiple states without additional primary source verification. Member states retain jurisdiction over disciplinary actions, and the interstate commission oversees the compact's administration, including rulemaking and dispute resolution. The compact aims to enhance access to health care by simplifying the licensure process while maintaining state regulatory authority.
