Relates to allowing health care professionals to perform services at the Ironman Lake Placid
This bill temporarily allows out-of-state health professionals (like doctors, nurses, or physical therapists) to provide services at the Ironman Lake Placid 2026 event without needing a New York license. It applies only to those in good standing in their home state, appointed by the World Triathlon Corporation, and serving athletes or teams registered for the event. Services are limited to four days before through one day after the July 19, 2026 race, and the exemption expires on July 22, 2026. The bill directly affects participating health professionals and event attendees, with no broader impact on healthcare practice in New York.
