REVISED
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS30823C1 / H0436
The Idaho Board of Medicine currently governs the practice of dietetics, athletic training, respiratory
therapy, and naturopathic medicine through separate advisory boards for each practice. This bill restructures
those advisory boards into a single allied health advisory board to restrain costs and provide more efficient
governance.
FISCAL NOTE
There will be no additional spending with this board consolidation; it is anticipated that there will be a reduction
in the operational costs associated with holding board meetings. Each of these boards is operating beneath the
30% threshold; two have negative cash balances. Combining these boards into a single advisory board will
create efficiencies that will reverse that trend.
