The bill proposes the adoption of the Dietitian Licensure Compact in South Dakota, which aims to streamline the practice of dietetics across state lines, enhancing public access to dietetic services while maintaining state regulatory authority. It allows licensed dietitians to practice in member states without obtaining multiple licenses, provided they meet specific requirements such as holding a valid home state license and undergoing background checks. The bill also includes provisions for Active Military Members and their spouses to maintain their home state designation during active duty, and it outlines the authority of Remote States to take adverse actions against dietitians' compact privileges.

Additionally, the bill establishes the Dietitian Licensure Compact Commission, which will oversee the administration of the Compact, including rulemaking, investigations, and financial management. The commission members will be granted qualified immunity for actions taken within their official duties, and the bill includes provisions for the defense and indemnification of commission members against civil actions. It also sets up a coordinated Data System for managing information related to Compact Privileges and outlines the processes for states to join or withdraw from the Compact. The Compact will take effect once enacted by seven Member States, and it includes mechanisms for amendments and the resolution of disputes among member states.
