Bill Summary

AN ACT to authorize certain health care professionals licensed or certified by a foreign government or by another state or territory to provide professional services in this state in connection with the Ryder Cup; and providing for the repeal of such provisions upon expiration thereof

AI Summary

This bill temporarily allows healthcare professionals licensed in foreign countries or other U.S. states to provide medical services in New York during the 2025 Ryder Cup without obtaining New York-specific licensing, under specific conditions. Specifically, foreign-licensed healthcare professionals (including physicians, physical therapists, nurses, and others) can provide medical services to athletes, coaches, staff, and delegations from their home country between September 22-29, 2025. Similarly, healthcare professionals licensed in other U.S. states who are in good standing and appointed by the PGA of America can provide services to team athletes, coaches, and delegations associated with the Ryder Cup during the same timeframe. The bill is narrowly tailored to the Ryder Cup event, with provisions automatically expiring on September 29, 2025, ensuring this is a time-limited exemption specifically designed to facilitate medical support for international and interstate sports teams participating in the golf tournament.
