Bill > HF84

This bill modifies the requirements for reciprocal licensure for mortuary science professionals in Minnesota by establishing more comprehensive and detailed criteria for obtaining a license from another jurisdiction. The bill requires applicants seeking a reciprocal license to pass both the Minnesota state licensing examination and the National Board Examination, submit various documentation including proof of educational requirements or substantial professional experience, provide affidavits confirming they are not under investigation in other jurisdictions and have performed a minimum of 25 funeral services, arrangements, and embalming cases, and demonstrate completion of recent continuing education hours. The bill gives the commissioner of mortuary science the authority to grant or deny licensure based on these new, more stringent requirements, with a license valid for up to one calendar year. The changes aim to ensure that out-of-state mortuary science professionals meet Minnesota's professional standards by requiring more comprehensive proof of their qualifications, experience, and ongoing professional development before receiving a reciprocal license.
