Senate Bill 1191 (as introduced 5-11-04)
Sponsor: Senator Bruce Patterson
Committee: Health Policy
Date Completed: 5-18-04
CONTENT
The bill would amend the State License Fee Act to add physician's assistants and nurse practitioners to the individuals listed in the schedule of fees for people licensed or seeking licensure for a boxing or wrestling contest.
A physician's assistant or nurse practitioner would have to pay the same application processing fee as a judge, physician, announcer, or timekeeper. The fee is $30 through September 30, 2007, and will be $15 after that date.

FISCAL IMPACT
The bill could increase revenue but the level would depend on the number of physician's assistants and nurse practitioners who were hired. According to the Department of Labor and Economic Growth, the preference would always be to use a physician, so revenue would probably be minimal, if any.
