Expanding the scope of practice of naturopathic doctors, specifying continuing education requirements, increasing the required amount of professional liability insurance and modifying certain provisions relating to the licensure and regulations of naturopathic doctors.

HB 2366 expands the scope of practice for licensed naturopathic doctors in Kansas, allowing them to order diagnostic imaging (like X-rays and ultrasounds, but requiring referral to a licensed professional for interpretation), prescribe certain prescription drugs and testosterone, and provide prenatal care. The bill also mandates that naturopathic doctors document prescriptions in writing, maintain appropriate training for prescribed treatments, and register with the Drug Enforcement Administration to prescribe controlled substances. It prohibits naturopathic doctors from performing surgery, administering anesthesia, interpreting diagnostic imaging, or conducting pregnancy terminations. Additionally, the bill specifies new continuing education requirements and increases the minimum professional liability insurance amount required for licensure.
