SB 1339 Missouri Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Establishes provisions relating to dietitians, including reciprocity, nonrenewable temporary licenses, and the Dietitian Licensure Compact

SB 1339 creates a multistate agreement (the Dietitian Licensure Compact) allowing dietitians licensed in one participating state to practice in other participating states without needing to reapply for a new license. It also establishes rules for nonrenewable temporary licenses, which would permit dietitians to work temporarily in a state without full licensure while pursuing permanent credentials. The bill directly affects dietitians seeking to practice across state lines, particularly those relocating for work or needing short-term authorization. Key provisions include standardized license recognition between participating states and clear guidelines for temporary permits. This aims to reduce barriers for dietitians moving between states while maintaining licensing standards.
