An Act relating to an interstate physical therapy licensure compact; relating to the licensure of physical therapists, physical therapist assistants, occupational therapists, and occupational therapy assistants; and providing for an effective date.

This bill establishes an interstate compact to allow physical therapists, physical therapist assistants, occupational therapists, and occupational therapy assistants to practice across state lines more easily. It requires the state licensing board to implement this compact and outlines standard qualifications for licensure, including graduation from an accredited program, passing a national exam, and completing a criminal background check. By adopting these regulations, the legislation aims to streamline the process for healthcare professionals seeking to work in multiple states while maintaining consistent safety and competency standards.
