Name
Demystifying Occupational Licensure Compacts
Date & Time
Monday, September 23, 2024, 11:00 AM - 11:50 AM
Isabel Eliassen
Description

Isabel Eliassen will unravel the complexities of occupational licensure compacts, which play a crucial role in reducing barriers for practitioners working across state lines while maintaining high standards for public health and safety. Managing individual licenses in multiple states can be burdensome for practitioners who work via telehealth or travel frequently. Compacts offer a streamlined solution by allowing practitioners to maintain one license while practicing in other compact member states. This presentation will provide an overview of compacts and their benefits for traveling practitioners. Compacts currently exist for various occupations, including physicians, nurses, APRNs, psychologists, counselors, occupational therapists, physical therapists, audiologists, speech-language pathologists, and EMS personnel. Don't miss this opportunity to gain a comprehensive understanding of licensure compacts and how they can benefit you as a healthcare practitioner.
