House Bill No. introduced by J. Etchart proposes changes to the composition of the Montana State Board of Medical Examiners. The bill aims to increase the number of physician assistants on the board from one to two, while simultaneously reducing the number of doctors of medicine from five to four. Additionally, the bill maintains the inclusion of one doctor of osteopathy, one podiatrist, one nutritionist, one emergency care provider, and two public members on the board.

The amendments to Section 2-15-1731 of the Montana Code Annotated reflect these changes, ensuring a more diverse representation of healthcare professionals on the board. The adjustments are intended to enhance the board's ability to address the needs of the medical community and the public effectively.
