STATE OF ALASKA                                                                      BILL NO. CS SB193 (FIN)
2022 LEGISLATIVE SESSION
Analysis
   SB193 extends statutory authorization for the existing Board of Chiropractic Examiners to June 30, 2027. Adoption of the
   bill will continue existing activities by the board and administration by the division. Failure to adopt the bill will result in a
   oneyear wind down of the board in FY2023, and the division will assume all licensing responsibility in FY2024.
   If the bill passes the following expenses will be incurred:
   Travel:                $20.3 (5 board members and 1 staff member, to attend four board meetings per year)
   Services:              $0.4 (advertising of public notice of board meetings)
                          $1.0 (training and conference fees)
                          $0.1 (stipends for board members attending board meeting in community of residence)
   Regardless of whether this bill passes, activities and costs of the licensing program will continue. Annual
   expenditures are estimated to be approximately $140.3, with revenues from license fees covering those expenses. Current
   schedules of revenues and expenditures for licensing programs are located online at
   https://www.commerce.alaska.gov/web/Portals/5/pub/CBPLScheduleofRevenues_2022_Q2.pdf
   If this legislation is not passed and the board sunsets, the department would continue to require access to expertise in the
   profession. Replacing the expertise currently provided by volunteer board members with professional service contracts
   may increase the annual costs of this program, resulting in increased license fees. No professional licensing board has
   sunset in recent years, so reasonable estimates of this cost are unknown.
   Professional licensing programs within the Division of Corporations, Business and Professional Licensing are primarily
   funded by Receipt Supported Services, fund source 1156 Rcpt Svcs (DGF). Licensing fees for each occupation are set per AS
   08.01.065 so the total amount of revenue collected approximately equals the occupations actual regulatory costs.
