Summary

Practice of veterinary medicine. Eliminates the exception to licensure requirements for veterinarians licensed in other states who are called to attend a case in the Commonwealth and who do not open an office or appoint a place to practice within the Commonwealth. The bill allows the Board of Veterinary Medicine (the Board) to grant or renew a license or registration to an applicant who has had a license to practice veterinary medicine, a license to practice as a veterinary technician, or registration to practice as an equine dental technician revoked or suspended due to nonrenewal in another state. The bill also repeals (i) provisions allowing the Board to issue temporary licenses to certain applicants and (ii) provisions related to penalties for violations of statutes governing the practice of veterinary medicine.
