Medical Occupations - As enacted, enacts the "Physician Assistant (PA) Licensure Compact." - Amends TCA Title 63 and Title 68.

This bill enacts the Physician Assistant Licensure Compact in Tennessee, allowing licensed physician assistants to practice in other states that have joined the agreement without needing a new state license. The law creates a system where a physician assistant holding a valid license in one participating state can receive a "compact privilege" to work in another, provided the patient is located within that second state. To maintain safety and oversight, the bill establishes a national data system to track licenses and adverse actions, while also requiring criminal background checks for applicants. Additionally, the legislation specifically aims to assist military families by simplifying the process for active-duty personnel and their spouses to obtain practice privileges in different states.
