SF 210: Relating to the licensing, regulation, and discipline of licensed health professionals

Died when the session ended · The General Assembly adjourned on October 2, 2026. Bills that didn’t pass both chambers died.

What it does

This bill relates to the regulation of licensed health professionals. Prior to issuing a license to practice a health profession, the bill requires a health profession licensing board to consult the national practitioner data bank, the child abuse registry, and the sex offender registry for any information that would constitute grounds to decline to issue a license to an applicant. The bill also requires the department of inspections, appeals, and licensing to create an integrated database by July 1, 2026, that contains all information found in the national practitioner data bank and all state disciplinary records and actions, which shall be available to the public at no cost.
