AN ACT to create and enact chapter 43-17.5 of the North Dakota Century Code, relating to the physician assistant licensure compact; to amend and reenact section 43-17-01, subsection 1 of section 43-17-02.1, and sections 43-17-02.2 and 43-17-46 of the North Dakota Century Code, relating to the requirements of physician assistants privileged to practice under the physician assistant licensure compact; and to provide an effective date.

Header formatting changed from traditional multi-line layout to condensed digital format with updated session date (January 21, 2026) and page numbering style.

Page headers and footers were restructured from traditional 'Page No.' format to modern 'H. B. NO. 1622 - PAGE X' format.

Line breaks and paragraph spacing were adjusted for digital readability while maintaining identical legal text content.

Some text spacing inconsistencies were corrected (e.g., 'North Dakotathis' appears in both versions with same error, 'inunder' appears in both versions).
