A Resolution directing the Joint State Government Commission to conduct a study and provide an analysis on the implementation and effects of the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact Act, Psychology Interjurisdictional Compact Act, Physical Therapy Licensure Compact Act and the Nurse Licensure Compact Act, and the effects of interstate medical licensure compacts nationwide on their respective states and this Commonwealth.
This resolution directs Pennsylvania's Joint State Government Commission to study how four healthcare licensure compacts (medical, psychology, physical therapy, and nursing) affect the state. The study will analyze impacts on patient access to care, provider movement between states, licensing efficiency, and patient safety protections, including how complaints from other states are handled. It requires a report within six months with findings and recommendations for the General Assembly. The resolution focuses on evaluating existing compacts' effects on Pennsylvania and other states, not on advocating for policy changes.
