American and Canadian prosthetists,
I have been asked to write an article for inMotion magazine on licensure
of prosthetists/orthotists. I am aware of the laws in New Jersey,
Mississippi, Florida, Texas and Washington. What other states/provinces
have any type of regulations or laws that restrict who can provide
prostheses?
I am also aware of the bill in Illinois waiting for the Governor's
signature and that draft bills are being worked on in several states.
Is there licensure activities going on in your state/province?
