This bill also provides that the Board shall allow a practitioner of the healing arts who meets the statutory criteria to provide volunteer services without prior notice for a period of up to three days, provided the nonprofit organization verifies that the practitioner has a valid, unrestricted license in another state.

Allows doctors, dentists and dental hygienists, nurses, optometrists, pharmacists, psychologists, and veterinarians who are licensed and in good standing in another state, to participate in charitable medical events in Virginia for up to three days without prior notice to the applicable licensing board.
