Bill > HB1568

This bill extends the existence of the Committee for Clinical Perfusionists until June 30, 2031, by amending Tennessee Code Annotated (TCA) Title 4, Chapter 29, which deals with the sunset review of state agencies and programs, and Title 63, Chapter 28, which likely governs the licensing and regulation of health professions, including clinical perfusionists who operate heart-lung machines during surgery. Specifically, the bill removes a reference to the Committee for Clinical Perfusionists from a list of entities subject to review in TCA Section 4-29-247(a) and adds it as a new subdivision to TCA Section 4-29-252(a), which appears to be a list of committees and boards that are continued. This action effectively reauthorizes the committee for a longer period, ensuring its continued operation and oversight of the profession.
