S 2684 United States Senate · 118th Congress

Medical License Verification Act

The Medical License Verification Act requires the federal government to create an automated system that checks whether healthcare providers applying for a unique health identifier are licensed and in good standing in the state they claim. This verification must be completed within 30 days of the bill's enactment and must occur before the identifier is issued. The bill directly affects healthcare providers seeking a unique health identifier by adding a mandatory step to confirm their active state license. The key provision mandates this pre-issuance check to ensure only currently licensed providers receive the identifier.
