A 7063 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to the practice of veterinary medicine

This bill amends New York's veterinary medicine law to explicitly exclude equine pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy from the definition of "practice of veterinary medicine." It clarifies that administering this therapy for horses does not require a licensed veterinarian. The change directly affects equine therapy providers who previously may have needed veterinary licensing to offer this specific treatment. The law now allows non-veterinarians to provide equine PEMF therapy without it being considered veterinary practice.
