The physical examination must include a screening questionnaire for tuberculosis and, if indicated, a test to determine the presence or absence of tuberculosis in a communicable form. Currently, the physical examination must be performed by a physician, naturopathic doctor, physician assistant, or advanced practice nurse prescriber. Under this bill, the physical examination may also be performed by a chiropractor.
