Summary
Alaska is racing to secure over a billion dollars from a massive federal rural healthcare program by joining interstate licensing compacts—allowing out-of-state providers easier access to practice here.

Governor Dunleavy is now reviewing both bills, poised to decide Alaska’s future in this critical federal initiative. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
