HCS SCS SB 980 -- PHYSICAL THERAPY

This bill permits persons holding licenses to practice physical
therapy in other states to be issued a license to practice in
this state, upon application to the State Board of Registration
for the Healing Arts.  Applicants who are graduates of programs
not approved by the Commission on Accreditation in Physical
Therapy Education must provide evidence that their degree program
is the equivalent of the commission's program, and they must meet
the English language proficiency requirements established by
rule.

The provision which prohibits the board from granting licenses to
persons which have failed the physical therapy examination three
or more times is repealed by the bill.
