Community health board medical consultant acceptable professions to serve modification

This bill amends Minnesota law to clarify which healthcare professionals can serve as medical consultants for community health boards. It specifies that advanced practice nurses must be certified as clinical nurse specialists or nurse practitioners by a national organization acceptable to the Minnesota Board of Nursing. The change directly affects community health boards and the healthcare providers working with them, ensuring medical consultants meet defined credentialing standards. The bill modifies existing statute (145A.02, subd. 15) to add this clarity without expanding the list of eligible professions.
