RELATING TO THE PSYCHOLOGY INTERJURISDICTIONAL COMPACT.

HB 2098 authorizes the state to join the Psychology Interjurisdictional Compact (PSYCOMP), a multi-state agreement. If enacted, it would allow licensed psychologists in participating states to provide telehealth services and practice across state lines more easily. This directly affects licensed psychologists seeking to serve clients in other compact states and their clients. The bill itself only establishes the state's ability to enter the compact; it does not create new licensing rules or requirements.
