The bill aims to extend the existence and operations of the State Board of Medical Examiners and the Medical Licensure Commission in Alabama until October 1, 2027, as recommended by the Sunset Committee. It preserves the relevant sections of the Code of Alabama 1975 that govern these entities. Additionally, the bill introduces a new section, 34-24-53.2, which mandates that starting June 1, 2025, all members and employees of the State Board of Medical Examiners will be subject to the state ethics laws outlined in Chapter 25 of Title 36 of the Code of Alabama 1975.
The bill also includes a deletion of any previous provisions that may conflict with the new requirements set forth in Section 34-24-53.2. The act is set to take effect on June 1, 2025, following its passage in both the House and Senate.
