Health: licensing; continuing education requirements for physicians and podiatrists; reduce. Amends secs. 17033, 17533 & 18033 of 1978 PA 368 (MCL 333.17033 et seq.).
HB 4920 reduces continuing education requirements for licensed physicians, podiatrists, and osteopathic physicians in Michigan. It lowers the required hours from 150 to 120 per three-year license renewal period, effective January 1, 2027 (previously 150 hours until December 31, 2026). The bill maintains existing requirements for pain and symptom management education as part of the continuing education mandate. This change directly affects all medical professionals renewing licenses under the Public Health Code. The reduction aims to lessen administrative burden while preserving core educational standards.
