AI Summary

This bill authorizes chiropractic students who have completed all academic and clinical requirements for a Doctor of Chiropractic degree, and have passed the four levels of the National Chiropractic Board Examinations, to practice chiropractic under the direct supervision of a licensed chiropractor in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The supervising chiropractor must be registered and appointed as the chiropractor of record in the licensed chiropractic facility where the student is assigned. The student will practice under the license of the supervising chiropractor and will not be eligible to bill as a credentialed clinician. The state's chiropractic board may also designate other facilities or locations where the student can practice under the same conditions.
