Introduction and first reading, referred to Health Finance and Policy
Summary
The bill revises Minnesota law to add several licensed providers—such as physician assistants, nurses, dentists, dental therapists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech‑language pathologists and audiologists—to the volunteer health care provider program. By broadening the definition of "health care provider," the measure allows these professionals to volunteer under the program’s rules. This change aims to increase the pool of qualified volunteers who can deliver basic health services to communities in need.
