Bill Summary

This bill eliminates certain non-compete agreements for physician associates.

AI Summary

This bill makes certain contract restrictions on physician associates, who are licensed medical professionals assisting doctors, unenforceable. Specifically, any agreement that limits a physician associate's ability to practice in a certain area for a set time after their employment or partnership ends will be considered void and invalid, though the rest of the contract will remain in effect. This change will only apply to new contracts or renewals signed on or after the bill becomes law, which will be 60 days after its passage.
