The Maryland legislature unanimously approved SB340 and HB326 which
require Audiologists and Speech-Language Pathologists to hold state
licensure regardless of practice setting. The bills have not yet been
signed by Governor O’Malley. ASHA strongly supports efforts by states
to update their practice acts to reflect this emerging trend.
Currently, 12 states require school practitioners to comply with state
licensure requirements and other states are pursuing similar
legislation during the 2007 legislative sessions.
