HB3129

Establishes the "Physician Assistant Licensure Compact" to facilitate PA licensure across states.

The bill establishes the "Physician Assistant Licensure Compact," allowing physician assistants (PAs) licensed in one participating state to practice in other participating states without additional licensure. It creates a compact commission to oversee the compact, manage a data system, and resolve disputes. PAs must meet specific criteria, such as holding a qualifying license and passing a national exam, to exercise the compact privilege. The compact aims to enhance access to medical services while ensuring patient safety.
