AI Summary

This bill modifies the licensure process for occupational therapists and occupational therapy assistants in Michigan. It incorporates the Occupational Therapy Licensure Compact, which allows individuals who hold a compact privilege to practice occupational therapy in Michigan without obtaining a separate state license. The bill also expands the definition of "occupational therapy services" to include a broader range of therapeutic activities. The bill will take effect 90 days after it is enacted, but only if a related bill (House Bill No. 4169) is also enacted into law.
