Office of Professional Licensure Review Amendments

Summary

The bill revises Utah’s licensing rules to let physical therapists prescribe equipment and order more imaging, gives nurse anesthetists limited prescribing rights, and broadens duties for assistants, occupational therapists and acupuncturists. It also adds experience requirements for advanced practice nurses, allows certain minor surgeries by APRNs and physician assistants (with a sunset in 2028), and creates a new respiratory‑care apprentice license. These changes aim to increase provider flexibility while setting clearer standards.
