DESCRIPTION
The proposed legislation would allow the Board of Registration for the Healing Arts to license certain persons as physical therapist assistants without an examination until ninety days after the effective date of this legislation. The current statute imposes a limit of ninety days after rules are developed by the Board. This proposal would contain an emergency clause.
This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
This proposal would not affect Total State Revenues.
