HB 2314 Arizona House · 57th Legislature - First Regular Session

osteopathic examiners board; continuation

HB 2314 establishes a sunset date for Arizona's Board of Osteopathic Examiners in Medicine and Surgery, terminating the board on July 1, 2031, with all related statutes repealed by January 1, 2032. The bill directly affects osteopathic physicians and medical practitioners regulated under this board in Arizona, as it ends the board's authority to oversee their licensing and practice. Key provisions include setting a fixed end date for the board's operations and ensuring all related legal frameworks are formally repealed after the termination. The legislation does not create new regulations but formally ends an existing oversight body, aligning with statutory sunset requirements. This change is effective retroactively from July 1, 2025, as noted in the bill's passage.
