Veterinary medicine and veterinary technology practice provisions modified.

HF 3718 amends Minnesota's veterinary medicine statutes by adding and updating key definitions. It creates a new definition for "accredited program of veterinary technology" (requiring AVMA-CVTEA accreditation) and expands "animal" to include fish and reptiles (removing poultry exclusions). The bill also adds definitions for terms like "consulting," "consent," "dispensing," "donor," "emergency stabilization," and "extra-label use" to clarify veterinary practice standards. These changes primarily affect licensed veterinarians, veterinary technicians, and veterinary practices by standardizing terminology in the state's regulatory framework. The bill does not impose new practice requirements but refines existing legal definitions.
