Bill > A07753

This bill creates a registration and licensing process for limited-scope radiographers, who shall be permitted to practice radiography under the direct supervision of a licensed practitioner at urgent care centers. The bill amends the Public Health Law to establish standards for institutions of higher education to offer approved courses and accrediting examinations for limited-scope radiographers, and requires the Commissioner to establish a registration process for individuals to apply for a limited-scope radiographer license. The bill also authorizes the Commissioner to promulgate rules and regulations for the effective implementation of the new limited-scope radiographer license.
