Establishes procedures for licensing of certain international medical graduates; repeals R.S.45:9-14.
This bill establishes a new pathway for international medical graduates (IMGs) to obtain a provisional license to practice medicine in New Jersey. It directly affects IMGs who have completed 5+ years of practice in their home country, hold a medical degree from a recognized program, meet English fluency requirements, and are employed at a New Jersey healthcare facility. Key provisions include automatic conversion to a full license after a 3-year probationary period (without requiring continued employment), and requiring licensure from specific countries (e.g., Australia, Canada, UK). The bill replaces existing licensing rules in the state code and repeals the outdated R.S.45:9-14 section.
