State Board of Physicians - Naturopathic Doctors - Scope of Practice, Renewals, and Professional Liability Insurance

Summary

HB 520 would change which drugs naturopathic doctors can prescribe or dispense, rename and restructure the formulary council that oversees controlled substances, and tighten renewal and disciplinary requirements. It also forces doctors to list their malpractice insurance status on a public profile and to inform patients in writing if they lack coverage. The changes aim to increase oversight of naturopathic practice and protect patients.
