AI Summary

This bill modifies the continuing education requirements for chiropractors in Michigan by updating the existing regulations for license renewal. The bill maintains the requirement for licensed chiropractors to attend educational conferences, but clarifies that these must be 2-day conferences approved by the board and related to chiropractic practice. Additionally, the bill requires that these conferences include specific training in pain and symptom management and cover certain legal provisions. A new provision allows the board to recognize courses from the Providers of Approved Continuing Education of the Federation of Chiropractic Licensing Board, or equivalent programs, as meeting the conference attendance requirement. The board will have the authority to establish rules determining how many such courses would be equivalent to attending a full conference. These changes aim to provide more flexibility in continuing education while ensuring that chiropractors remain up-to-date on important professional knowledge and skills.
