Health occupations: veterinarians; veterinarian-client-patient relationship; require. Amends secs. 16287 & 18811 of 1978 PA 368 (MCL 333.16287 & 333.18811). TIE BAR WITH: SB 193'25

SB 194 amends Michigan's Public Health Code to clarify rules for veterinarians and veterinary technicians. It updates Section 18811 to specify that only licensed professionals may use restricted titles like "veterinarian," "veterinary surgeon," or "D.V.M." The bill also reinforces that veterinary technicians cannot diagnose diseases or prescribe treatments. These changes directly affect licensed veterinarians, technicians, and anyone using protected professional titles in Michigan. The bill does not create new programs but refines existing practice and title regulations.
