Bill > HB0235

This bill extends the Tennessee Board of Physical Therapy's existence until June 30, 2029, through specific technical amendments to state statutes. In Section 1, the bill removes a specific subdivision (number 10) from Tennessee Code Annotated Section 4-29-246(a), which likely relates to administrative classifications. In Section 2, the bill inserts language explicitly referencing the Board of Physical Therapy, created under Section 63-13-318, into another section of state code (Section 4-29-250(a)). These changes appear to be housekeeping measures to ensure the continued legal recognition and operation of the Board of Physical Therapy. The bill will take effect immediately upon becoming law, as specified in Section 3, with the stated justification that it serves the public welfare. By extending the board's authorization, the bill ensures continued oversight and regulation of physical therapy professionals in Tennessee.
