The proposed SB1334 bill introduces the Advanced Practice Registered Nurse Compact, which allows for the mutual recognition of APRN licenses among participating states. This compact aims to facilitate the mobility of APRNs, enhance public safety, and improve access to healthcare by establishing uniform licensure requirements. It also creates the Interstate Commission of APRN Compact Administrators to oversee the administration of the compact and a coordinated licensure information system for sharing licensure and disciplinary information between states.

The bill specifies the internal operations of the commission, including the authority to adopt rules with the force of law, conduct meetings, manage finances, and provide for the commission's personnel's immunity and indemnification. It sets out procedures for rulemaking, oversight, dispute resolution, and enforcement. Additionally, the bill clarifies that the compact does not supersede or alter Arizona's state laws regarding the scope of practice for APRNs and grants the Governor the power to withdraw from the compact if necessary.
