State licensure (interstate compacts for physicians, nurses, psychologists)
amendedYears 1–3Workforce & training
Today
Clinicians need a license in each state where the patient is located; compacts cover some states.
Under the plan
Federal grants encourage all states to join compacts so clinicians can serve UHP patients across state lines.
Trade-off
More capacity, especially for telehealth; states cede some control over discipline and standards.
