HB 2739 -- ANIMAL CHIROPRACTIC

SPONSOR: Veit

This bill defines an animal chiropractic practitioner as someone who is a licensed veterinarian or licensed by the Board of Chiropractic Examiners and who is certified by a veterinary chiropractic organization.

The bill removes "animal chiropractic" from the definition of veterinary medicine and it allows an animal chiropractic practitioner to engage in animal chiropractic without being considered practicing as a veterinarian.

This bill is similar to HB 1313 (2020).
