AI Summary

This bill revises various provisions related to chiropractic physicians and chiropractic assistants in Nevada. The bill introduces a new provision allowing the Chiropractic Physicians' Board of Nevada to issue temporary certificates to chiropractic assistants who hold a valid license in another state, valid for 15 business days or less and only under the supervision of a chiropractic physician. The bill also modifies the board's composition by increasing the number of chiropractic physician members from four to five and removing the requirement for a member representing indigent healthcare interests. Additionally, the bill provides more flexibility in examination requirements, removes specific passing score requirements, and expands the educational pathways for licensure by explicitly including doctor of chiropractic degree programs. The bill also updates various administrative provisions, such as fee structures, application requirements, and contact information for cease and desist orders. These changes aim to streamline the licensing and certification process for chiropractic professionals while maintaining regulatory oversight of the profession.
