To amend title 10, United States Code, to improve the process by which the Secretary of Defense verifies that health care professionals of the military departments are appropriately licensed.
HR 3636 requires the Secretary of Defense to create a centralized system for verifying the licenses of military health-care professionals. This system allows commanding officers at any Department of Defense health facility to quickly check a professional's license - regardless of the facility's location or the professional's military branch. The bill mandates that at least 90% of license verifications must be completed within seven days for professionals without adverse licensing records. This change aims to ensure all military health-care providers meet licensing standards efficiently.
