Bill > SB1727

This bill enacts the "Physician Assistant (PA) Licensure Compact" in Tennessee. The Compact allows medical services to be provided by physician assistants through the mutual recognition of licenses by other Compact Participating States. The bill establishes the Physician Assistant Licensure Compact Commission, which will administer the Compact, including setting rules, fees, and coordinating data reporting. The Compact allows physician assistants with a qualifying license in a Participating State to obtain a "Compact Privilege" to practice in other Participating States. The bill outlines the requirements and procedures for obtaining and maintaining a Compact Privilege, as well as provisions for Adverse Actions and dispute resolution. The bill also provides for the financing and governance of the Commission.
