Section 34-24-520 Purpose. In order to strengthen access to health care, and in recognition
of the advances in the delivery of health care, the member states of the Interstate Medical
Licensure Compact have allied in common purpose to develop a comprehensive process that complements
the existing licensing and regulatory authority of state medical boards, provides a streamlined
