What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, physical therapists and physical therapist assistants are

licensed by the Physical Therapists Affiliated Credentialing Board. An affiliated

credentialing board is a body that is attached to an examining board to regulate a

profession that does not practice independently of, or that practices in collaboration

with, the profession regulated by the examining board.

The Physical Therapists Affiliated Credentialing Board is attached to the

Medical Examining Board and, with the advice of the Medical Examining Board, sets

standards of professional competence and conduct for physical therapists and

physical therapist assistants, assesses qualifications and grants credentials, and

takes disciplinary actions.

This bill changes the Physical Therapists Affiliated Credentialing Board to the

Physical Therapy Examining Board. Except that the board will no longer be

attached to, or be advised by, the Medical Examining Board, the Physical Therapy

Examining Board's duties and responsibilities remain the same under the bill.
