Bill Summary

Relative to physician assistant non-competes. Labor and Workforce Development.

AI Summary

This bill seeks to amend Chapter 112 of the General Laws in Massachusetts by inserting a new section, Section 9L, which would render void and unenforceable any contractual provisions that restrict a physician assistant's right to practice in a certain geographical area for a period of time after the termination of their partnership, employment, or other professional relationship. This change aims to remove non-compete clauses that have previously been applied to physician assistants in such agreements.
