Text: Latest bill text (Amended) [HTML]

The purpose of the bill is to reconcile the provisions of Title VIII of the Education Law that prohibit corpo- rate practice of certain licensed professions and the provisions of Education Law S4410 and other provisions of Article 89 of the Education Law that contemplate that special education schools and providers be organized to provide multi-disciplinary evaluations and all related services recommended on the student's individualized education program, regardless of the profession involved. The bill would also clarify that the exemptions in the professions of psychology and speech-language pathology and audiology that allow elementary and secondary schools to employ school psychologists and teachers of the speech and hearing hand- icapped apply to center-based preschool special education providers' services when providing services on-site. The bill would similarly reconcile the provisions of Title VIII of the Education Law that prohib- it corporate practice of certain licensed professions and the provisions of Title 2-A of Article 25 of the Public Health Law that contemplate that early intervention agencies be organized to provide the full range of early intervention program services.

Relates to the practice of licensed professions by special education schools and early intervention agencies and their employees.
