An Act adjusting school bus driver physical examinations

SD 1764 (An Act adjusting school bus driver physical examinations) amends Massachusetts law to allow licensed chiropractors to conduct the required physical examinations for school bus drivers, alongside licensed physicians. This change directly affects school bus drivers and school transportation providers in Massachusetts who need to complete these mandatory health screenings. The bill specifically adds "or licensed chiropractor" after "licensed physician" in two sections of the existing law governing these examinations. This is a technical adjustment to expand the pool of qualified medical professionals authorized to perform the physicals, without altering the examination requirements themselves.
