"Naturopathic Doctors Licensing Act."

New Jersey's S 904, the "Naturopathic Doctors Licensing Act," establishes a state licensing system for naturopathic doctors. It creates the State Board of Naturopathic Examiners to set licensure standards, review applicants, issue licenses, and enforce rules for practitioners. The bill prohibits unlicensed practice or using titles like "naturopathic doctor" without a valid license, directly affecting naturopathic doctors seeking to practice in New Jersey and consumers relying on their services. Key provisions include requiring board members to be licensed naturopathic doctors with five years of practice, setting continuing education standards, and defining naturopathic medicine as a primary health care system.
