SB 1376: Physician assistants.
What SB 1376 does, verified July 2, 2026
<p>This bill aims to amend the Business and Professions Code to make changes to the regulation of physician assistants. Currently, the Physician Assistant Practice Act requires the Physician Assistant Board to receive permission from the Director of Consumer Affairs to meet more than six times a year. The bill would delete this provision, allowing the board to meet as needed without needing approval from the director.</p>
