The bill S. 236 aims to amend the South Carolina Code of Laws regarding the supervision and licensure of anesthesiologist's assistants. Specifically, it proposes to increase the number of anesthesiologist's assistants that a supervising anesthesiologist can oversee from two to four. Additionally, the bill seeks to remove the requirement for licensure applicants to appear before a member of the Board of Medical Examiners to present evidence of their academic credentials and knowledge.

These changes are reflected in the amendments to Section 40-47-1250, which now allows for the supervision of up to four anesthesiologist's assistants, and Section 40-47-1240, which eliminates the need for applicants to present their qualifications in person to the board. The bill is set to take effect upon approval by the Governor.
