Bill Summary

Relative to the board of registration in naturopathy. Public Health.

AI Summary

This bill amends sections of Chapter 112 of the Massachusetts General Laws related to the Board of Registration in Naturopathy. It makes changes to the requirements for controlled substances that naturopaths can prescribe, as well as the educational and exam requirements for naturopaths to become licensed in the state. Specifically, it allows naturopaths to prescribe Schedule I-V controlled substances, rather than just "controlled substances or prescription drugs", and it allows for the recognition of a state exam that existed prior to 1987 as meeting the educational requirements for licensing.
