HSB 119 Iowa House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A bill for an act enacting the dietitian licensure compact.

This bill establishes a dietitian licensure compact, allowing licensed dietitians in Iowa to practice across participating states without obtaining separate licenses in each. It creates a "compact privilege" equivalent to a state license, enabling dietitians to provide services (including telehealth) in remote states while preserving each state's regulatory authority over public health and safety. The compact requires member states to share license, disciplinary, and continuing education information through a centralized data system, reducing administrative burdens for professionals and states. It specifically supports military members and spouses relocating by streamlining licensure across state lines.
