Oregon SB1539 modifies regulations on who can provide animal health care, allowing certain exceptions.

Oregon SB1539 amends existing laws to clarify who can provide animal health care without violating veterinary practice laws. It allows licensed veterinarians from other states to consult in Oregon for up to 30 days within a year. It also permits certain individuals, such as students under supervision and those employed by educational or research institutions, to engage in animal health care activities. Additionally, it allows for the practice of veterinary medicine by commissioned officers of the U.S. Army and other government agencies, provided they are not in private practice.
