AI Summary

This bill amends Tennessee law to exempt certain medical imaging services from requiring a license from the health facilities commission, which is a state agency responsible for regulating healthcare facilities. Specifically, it clarifies that magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and positron emission tomography (PET) scans that are not used for diagnostic purposes, meaning they are not used to identify or determine the nature of a disease or condition, will no longer need to be licensed as regulated healthcare facilities or services. This change is intended to streamline regulations for these specific types of imaging when they are used for non-diagnostic applications, such as research or treatment planning, and will take effect on July 1, 2026.
