SB 270 West Virginia Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Department of Health rule relating to clinical laboratory practitioner licensure

This bill authorizes the West Virginia Department of Health to implement a specific rule (64 CSR 57) governing clinical laboratory practitioner licensure. It formally approves a modified rule that was previously reviewed by the Legislative Rule-Making Review Committee, allowing the Department to enforce standardized licensing requirements for clinical laboratory practitioners without altering the rule's substantive content. The bill is procedural and does not change the licensure requirements themselves.
