What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill allows a person to practice for up to 90 days a year as a physician for

campers and staff at a recreational and educational camp licensed in this state if both

of the following are satisfied: 1) the person is licensed in good standing to practice

medicine and surgery by another state or territory of the United States or a foreign

country or province and the licensure standards in that jurisdiction are substantially

equivalent to the requirements of this state; and 2) the person is not under active

investigation by a licensing authority or law enforcement authority in any state,

federal, or foreign jurisdiction. A person is required to submit a form to the Medical

Examining Board before practicing as allowed under the bill.
