Mobile Opportunity by Interstate Licensure Endorsement Act
SB 154 revises Florida's eligibility rules for healthcare professionals seeking a license by endorsement under the MOBILE Act, directly affecting out-of-state healthcare workers aiming to practice in Florida. It updates the list of ineligibilities, notably adding that applicants reported to the National Practitioner Data Bank may still qualify if the reported conduct wouldn't violate Florida law, allowing boards to approve with conditions like practice restrictions or probation. The bill also clarifies ineligibility for those with pending disciplinary actions, felony convictions related to healthcare, or revoked licenses in other states. It takes effect July 1, 2026, and does not change the core purpose of facilitating interstate licensure for healthcare professionals.
