The bill amends the Automatic Occupational Licensure for Out-of-State Licensure Act to include provisions specifically for physicians. It modifies Arkansas Code 17-7-106 by removing the exemption for medical professions and inserting language that clarifies that the chapter applies to physicians licensed under the Arkansas Medical Practices Act.

Additionally, the bill maintains existing exemptions for legal professionals and individuals under reciprocity agreements, as well as for existing multistate or interstate compacts. The inclusion of physicians under this act aims to streamline the licensure process for out-of-state medical professionals seeking to practice in Arkansas.
