Title of bill
An act to amend chapter 192 of the laws of 2011, relating to authorizing certain health care professionals licensed to practice in other jurisdictions to practice in this state in connection with an event sanctioned by New York Road Runners, in relation to extending the provisions thereof
Purpose
To authorize certain licensed health care professionals from other jurisdictions to practice in New York State with respect to six major events sanctioned by New York Road Runners.
Summary of provisions
Section 1-Authorizes that any person who is licensed to practice as a physician, physician's assistant, massage therapist, physical therapist, chiropractor, dentist, optometrist, nurse, nurse practitioner, certified athletic trainer or podiatrist in another state or territory, who is in good standing in such state or territory and who has been appointed by the New York Road Runners to provide professional services at an event in this state sanctioned by the New York Road Runners, may provide such professional services to athletes and team personnel registered to train at a location in this state or registered to compete in an event conducted under the sanction of the New York Road Runners in the state without first being licensed pursuant to the provisions of Title 8 of the Education Law. Such services may be provided only four days before the following events, during the following events, and one day after the following events:
Event Date Staten Island HalfÑ10.09.2016 New York City MarathonÑ11.06.2016 Brooklyn HalfÑ05.21.2016 Bronx HalfÑ09.25.2016 Queens 10KÑ06.18.2016 New York City HalfÑ03.20.2016
Section 2-Effective date.
Justification
There are not enough health care professionals available, within the State of New York, to meet the needs of participants in certain major events sanctioned by the New York Road Runners, including the New York City Marathon. Accordingly, it would be advantageous to allow licensed health care professionals, who are in good standing with their respective state or territory, to provide such services here in New York.
