An Act relative to physician assistant interstate compact
HD 936 establishes a Physician Assistant Licensure Compact, allowing licensed physician assistants (PAs) in participating states to practice across state lines without obtaining separate licenses. It creates a "compact privilege" enabling PAs to provide medical services in another participating state where the patient is located, requiring them to comply with that state's laws. Key provisions include requiring PAs to hold an unrestricted license in good standing, pass a national exam (like the PANCE), have no criminal convictions, and undergo background checks. The compact also streamlines licensing for military families by allowing active-duty personnel and spouses to use their home-state license. This bill directly affects PAs seeking to practice across state lines and participating states' licensing boards.
