STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS28820 / H0404
Title 54 of the Idaho Code permits “Allied Health Professionals” who are not licensed veterinarians to
perform certain treatment on, and provide services to, animals. However, under current law, the Allied
Health Professional is not permitted to offer or advertise those services to the public. This bill remedies the
discrepancy by allowing qualified Allied Health Professionals who are authorized to provide certain services
the ability to also advertise and offer those services to the public.
FISCAL NOTE
From this change in statute there is no fiscal impact to the General Fund, any dedicated fund, federal grants, or
impacts to local funds because no expenditure from these accounts is required.
