The bill HB2826/S.B. 1075 extends the termination dates for several Arizona state health regulatory boards and the Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System (AHCCCS). Specifically, it continues the Arizona State Board of Optometry, the Naturopathic Physicians Medical Board, and AHCCCS until July 1, 2029, with a repeal date set for January 1, 2030. Additionally, the bill continues the Arizona State Board of Dental Examiners (BODEX) and the Arizona State Board of Massage Therapy until July 1, 2025, with a repeal date of January 1, 2026.

The bill amends current statutes by adding new sections that set the termination and repeal dates for these boards and AHCCCS. It repeals the previous statutes that would have terminated these entities on July 1, 2023, and replaces them with new termination dates, effectively extending the life of these regulatory bodies and the state's Medicaid agency.
