NM HB45

Enacts the Physician Assistant Licensure Interstate Compact, allowing physician assistants with qualifying licenses in participating states to practice across state lines through a "compact privilege" without obtaining additional full licenses

Requires licensees seeking compact privilege to hold current national certification, have no felony or misdemeanor convictions, have no controlled substance license suspensions or revocations, and meet any jurisprudence requirements of remote states

Creates the Physician Assistant Licensure Compact Commission as a joint governmental agency with one delegate per participating state, empowered to promulgate binding rules, establish fees, maintain a coordinated data system, and take adverse actions against compact privileges

Compact becomes effective when enacted by seven states; participating states retain authority to impose adverse actions against compact privileges and must report disciplinary actions to the commission's data system within 30 days

Provides military family accommodation by allowing active duty personnel and their spouses to obtain compact privileges based on unrestricted licenses in good standing from any participating state
