HB 1584 Tennessee House · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Sunset Laws - As enacted, extends the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact to June 30, 2034. - Amends TCA Title 4, Chapter 29 and Title 63, Chapter 6, Part 4.

HB 1584 extends Tennessee's participation in the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact until June 30, 2034, preventing its automatic expiration. This bill directly affects medical professionals seeking to practice across state lines and healthcare systems serving patients in multiple states. The key provision amends Tennessee law to update the compact's expiration date in Title 4 and Title 63 of the Tennessee Code, ensuring continued multi-state licensure for doctors. This change allows physicians to maintain active licenses in Tennessee while practicing in other participating states without additional state-specific requirements.
