What does Section 490.0075 regulate?

Section 490.0075 is specifically focused on the regulations surrounding the temporary practice of psychology under the interstate compact. This section provides important guidelines that facilitate the practice of licensed psychologists in different states that are part of the compact, allowing for smoother and more flexible service delivery across state lines.

In states that participate in this compact, psychologists are allowed to practice temporarily without needing to obtain a separate license for each state, as long as they meet certain criteria established under the compact's provisions. It promotes the mobility of psychologists, enabling them to respond to the needs of various communities efficiently, especially in situations where immediate psychological services are necessary.

Understanding this section is crucial for psychologists who wish to practice in multiple states, as it outlines the requirements they must fulfill to engage in temporary practice legally and ethically.
