Conferees note $25,000 appropriation ceiling for interstate medical-licensure compact bill; defer to review CD1
Summary
On SB1365 (HD1) conferees said the department reported a $25,000 appropriation ceiling included in the budget for Hawaii's participation in the interstate medical licensure compact; the committee deferred action to allow review of a newly received conference draft.
A conference convened later in the session to consider SB1365 (HD1), which would implement the interstate medical licensure compact.
Senate conferees said a proposed CD1 would include House technical amendments and a corrected effective date. They reported that the relevant department had advised a $25,000 appropriation ceiling had been included in the budget. Because the draft was received only moments earlier, conferees agreed to roll the item to April 22 at 1:40 p.m. in Room 224 so members could review the draft and confirm fiscal and technical details.
The brief session did not include a vote; the conference will reconvene to consider the finalized CD1.
