Committee hears extensive testimony on SB193 to allow temporary prescriptive endorsements for naturopathic doctors

SB193 would let licensed Alaska naturopathic doctors apply for a temporary endorsement to prescribe a limited range of medications under a written collaborative agreement with a supervising MD or DO, with a 12‑month supervised period and ongoing continuing‑education and testing requirements; invited witnesses from national and state naturopathic bodies testified in support.
