An Act relating to the interstate medical licensure compact; relating to the PA licensure compact; relating to the psychology interjurisdictional compact; and relating to the recognition of EMS personnel licensure interstate compact.

HB 352 allows Alaska to join the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact, the Physician Assistant (PA) Licensure Compact, the Psychology Interjurisdictional Compact, and the EMS Personnel Licensure Compact. This creates a streamlined process for healthcare professionals - including physicians, physician assistants, psychologists, and EMS personnel - to obtain licenses in multiple states without separate applications for each state. The bill requires background checks for applicants and mandates that providers must be licensed in the state where the patient is located during care. It does not change existing state medical practice laws but integrates these compacts into Alaska’s licensing framework.
