Bill Summary
This bill extends from 6 months to 9 months the time frame for which the Board of Chiropractic Licensure may issue a nonrenewable temporary license for a chiropractic intern to practice chiropractic.
AI Summary
This bill modifies the existing law regarding chiropractic intern licenses by extending the maximum duration of a temporary, nonrenewable chiropractic license from 6 months to 9 months. The bill allows the chiropractic board to issue a temporary license to an applicant who meets specific conditions, with the license being limited to a specific place or setting where chiropractic services will be provided. The board retains the authority to establish additional rules for temporary licensure of chiropractic interns and can deny a temporary license if an applicant fails to provide the required documentation. This change provides chiropractic interns with a slightly longer period to complete their internship or meet licensing requirements, potentially offering more flexibility in their professional training and transition to full licensure.
