     SENATE COMMERCE COMMITTEE

                    STATEMENT TO

                   SENATE, No. 897

 STATE OF NEW JERSEY
                    DATED: JANUARY 27, 2020

   The Senate Commerce Committee reports favorably Senate Bill No.
897.
   This bill requires the State Board of Chiropractic Examiners to
issue a temporary travel license to any person who has been
examined and licensed to practice chiropractic by the examining
and licensing board of another state or jurisdiction of the United
States having requirements for examination and licensure
substantially equivalent to those required under section 8 of
P.L.1953, c.233 (C.45:9-41.5). The temporary travel license must
be issued without further examination upon application and
payment of a license fee, as determined by the board, and will allow
the traveling chiropractor to visit, examine, treat, or advise a
specific patient or client, or give a demonstration of a procedure or
clinic, in this State, provided that the care, consultation,
demonstration, clinic, or other services are within the scope of
practice of chiropractic as defined in R.S.45:9-14.5.
   Under the bill, the board will issue a temporary travel license to
a visiting chiropractor who:
   (1) is in good standing and possesses an unencumbered license
in each state or jurisdiction in which the visiting chiropractor is
licensed;
   (2) applies to the board for the temporary travel license no less
than 60 days prior to a visit in this State;
   (3) provides to the board the following information: the purpose
of the visit and whether the visit is for voluntary services or for a
fee; the anticipated duration of the visit; and the chiropractic license
numbers in each state or jurisdiction in which the visiting
chiropractor is licensed; and
   (4) provides to the board an affidavit that the visiting
chiropractor is in good standing in each state or jurisdiction in
which the visiting chiropractor is licensed.
   The bill also provides that, unless otherwise determined by the
board on an individual basis, the temporary travel license will
permit a visiting chiropractor to practice chiropractic in this State
for not more than 14 days during any calendar year.
   The board may terminate the temporary travel license of any
visiting chiropractor at any time for any of the following reasons:
                                2

   (1) the visiting chiropractor failed to materially comply with or
violated a provision of the laws, rules or regulations governing the
practice of chiropractic;
   (2) the visiting chiropractor committed an act that would
constitute grounds for discipline if committed by a person fully
licensed by the board in this State; or
   (3) the board receives and validates a complaint indicating that
the temporary licensee is unfit to practice chiropractic or has
otherwise endangered the health and safety of the general public.
   Under the bill, if the board terminates the temporary travel
license of a visiting chiropractor, then the board must provide
written notification of the termination to the visiting chiropractor
detailing the basis for the termination. Upon receiving written
notification of the termination, the visiting chiropractor must
immediately cease the practice of chiropractic in this State. Finally,
the bill requires the board to provide a copy of the written
notification of the termination to the examining or licensing board
of each state or jurisdiction in which the visiting chiropractor is
licensed.
