Iowa HF2498 establishes the interstate podiatric medical licensure compact.

Iowa HF2498 enacts the interstate podiatric medical licensure compact, facilitating expedited licensure for podiatrists across participating states. The compact allows eligible podiatrists to obtain a license in a member state without undergoing the full licensing process of that state. The compact creates an interstate commission to oversee its administration, including establishing rules and procedures for licensure, disciplinary actions, and dispute resolution. Participating states retain their authority to regulate podiatric medicine, and the compact does not alter existing state laws.
