Enters New Jersey into Interstate Physician Assistant Licensure Compact.

This bill would enter New Jersey into the Interstate Physician Assistant Licensure Compact, allowing physician assistants (PAs) licensed in New Jersey to practice in other participating states through a "Compact Privilege" without needing separate state licenses. To qualify, PAs must hold an unrestricted license in a participating state, have current NCCPA certification, no criminal convictions, and meet other requirements like passing background checks. The compact requires participating states to share license status and adverse action information through a centralized data system administered by a PA Licensure Compact Commission. This would streamline licensure for PAs across participating states, benefiting those who need to practice in multiple states while maintaining patient safety through shared disciplinary reporting.
