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
process that allows physicians to become licensed in multiple states, thereby enhancing the
portability of a medical license and promoting the safety of patients. The compact creates

where the patient is located. State medical boards...
