Bill Summary

AN ACT to create and enact a new subdivision to subsection 2 of section 12-60-24 of the North Dakota Century Code, relating to criminal history record checks by the board of occupational therapy practice; to amend and reenact section 43-17-27.1 of the North Dakota Century Code, relating to physician continuing education requirements; to provide a statement of legislative intent; and to provide an effective date.

AI Summary

This bill makes two primary changes to North Dakota law: first, it adds a provision allowing the board of occupational therapy practice to conduct criminal history record checks for applicants, licensees, or investigations related to their practice; and second, it amends physician continuing education requirements by mandating that physicians complete at least one hour of continuing education on nutrition and metabolic health during each license renewal period, with the legislative intent being for other health occupation boards to also consider requiring nutrition-related continuing education to help prevent and reduce chronic diseases.
