"HB 396 requires the Allopathic and Osteopathic Boards, the Division and Deans of educational institutions to develop rules to administer the educational methods and programs that an associate physician shall complete throughout the collaborative practice arrangement, facilitate the advancement of the associate physicians medical knowledge and capabilities such that it may lead to credit toward a future residency program."
- Larry Marx, Bureau Manager State of Utah Department of Commerce
Division of Occupational and Professional Licensing
It seems that Utah is really pushing for the AP licencing to be a stepping stone not a life profession. The bill also states that there is a four year cap for the licence. No official statement on what the "rules to administer the educational methods and programs that an associate physician shall complete" are however AMDAP will closly monitor the situation for details.
