California AB967 amends the Business and Professions Code to modify the expedited licensure process for physicians and surgeons. The bill exempts applicants for expedited licensure under specific sections from paying the expedite fee. It also mandates that these applications do not take priority over other expedited licensure applications. The expedite fee, set by the board, must not exceed $250 and requires proof of an active and unrestricted license from another jurisdiction and documentation of intent to provide direct patient care within 90 days.
