The proposed bill, if enacted, would amend current statutes regarding the licensure requirements for graduates from unapproved allopathic medical schools in Arizona. Specifically, it would change the requirement for these applicants from having to "successfully complete" an additional approved 24-month hospital internship, residency, or clinical fellowship program to instead being "enrolled in" such a program. This modification aims to provide more flexibility for applicants while still ensuring they undergo the necessary training.

Additionally, the bill would make a technical change by replacing the term "council" with "commission" in the context of the standard certificate issued to foreign medical graduates. Overall, these updates are intended to streamline the licensure process for international medical graduates while maintaining the integrity of medical training standards in Arizona.
