HLC joined the Interstate Healthcare Collaborative in urging congressional leaders to advance the bipartisan SHARE Act, legislation designed to modernize and streamline interstate healthcare licensing. The bill would clarify the FBI’s authority to share criminal history records with state licensing agencies participating in interstate compacts, helping providers obtain multistate licenses more efficiently while maintaining strong privacy safeguards. Supporters say the proposal would strengthen workforce mobility, reinforce interstate licensure compacts, and improve patient access to care, particularly in rural and underserved communities.
