What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, the examinations required for chiropractic licensure in this

state include a practical examination administered by the Chiropractic Examining

Board (board) that tests the applicant's knowledge of the subjects usually taught in

a chiropractic school and any examination that the National Board of Chiropractic

Examiners (NBCE) requires.

This bill eliminates the requirement that an applicant for chiropractic

licensure pass a practical exam administered by the board. Also, the bill specifies

that an applicant for chiropractic licensure must pass Parts I, II, III, and IV of the

chiropractic examination that the NBCE administers.

The bill also adds the American Chiropractic Association as an acceptable

sponsor of continuing education programs required by the board.
