The bill establishes a new chapter, CHAPTER 64.2, titled "Dietitian Licensure Compact," within Title 5 of the General Laws. The purpose of this chapter is to facilitate the interstate practice of dietetics, improving public access to dietetics services while preserving the regulatory authority of each state to protect public health and safety. The compact allows licensed dietitians from member states to practice in other member states without needing multiple licenses.

Key provisions include the establishment of criteria for dietitians to exercise compact privileges, requirements for states to participate in the compact, and mechanisms for licensing and investigating complaints against dietitians. The bill also includes specific guidelines for active military members and their spouses regarding the designation of a home state license.

Additionally, the bill creates the Dietitian Licensure Compact Commission, which will oversee the administration of the compact, enforce compliance, and manage financial operations. It includes provisions for qualified immunity and indemnification for commission members, mandates the development of a coordinated data system for managing licensure information, and outlines the process for dispute resolution among member states.

The compact will take effect once enacted by seven member states and includes measures for addressing states that fail to meet their obligations, ensuring accountability and operational efficiency within the commission.
