Bill summary

Amends GS 90-142.1(a), revising the definition of "preceptorship program" of a chiropractic college to permit students to perform chiropractic services (defined by statutory cross-reference) under the direct supervision of a licensed chiropractor, subject to the limitations of a license to practice set out in GS 90-151 (previously, only permitted students to perform the duties of a certified chiropractic clinical assistant). Defines "direct supervision" to mean the supervising licensed chiropractor is within the immediate patient treatment area and available to the student at all times. Makes conforming changes to GS 90-147 relating to practicing without a license. 

Directs the State Board of Chiropractic Examiners to adopt temporary implementing rules. 

Effective October 1, 2023.
