Bill > HB23

This bill establishes new licensure requirements for medical schools in New Mexico. It requires medical schools to demonstrate that they have executed agreements with at least four clinical affiliates in New Mexico to provide third and fourth-year medical student training, as well as the ability to facilitate the creation of new graduate medical education residency programs, with a preference for primary care programs in urban, frontier, and rural areas. The bill also requires medical schools to obtain the required number of executed agreements and faculty-credentialed appointments from New Mexico-based preceptors, as defined by the school's programmatic accreditor. The Higher Education Department is tasked with maintaining an appeals process for medical schools that have had a license denied.
