Overview: HB 5067 - AN ACT RELATING TO BUSINESSES AND PROFESSIONS -- DIETITIAN LICENSURE COMPACT
Status: 06/26/2025 Effective without Governor's signature
Introduced: March 13, 2025

Purpose and Intent: The bill establishes the Dietitian Licensure Compact, which aims to facilitate the interstate practice of dietetics by creating a reciprocal licensing system among participating states.

Key Provisions:
- Allows dietitians licensed in one compact member state to practice in other member states without obtaining additional licenses
- Establishes uniform educational, examination, and practice standards for dietitian licensure
- Requires compact member states to recognize and accept the licensure requirements of other member states
- Creates an interstate commission to administer and enforce the compact

Affected Parties and Impacts:
- Dietitians who will benefit from increased mobility and ability to practice across state lines
- Consumers who will have improved access to licensed dietitian services
- State regulatory boards that will coordinate licensure requirements and information sharing

Procedural and Timeline Considerations:
The bill has been enacted and will take effect on June 26, 2025. The interstate commission will be established within 6 months, and the compact will become operational once 10 states have joined.
