SB 86 updates the definitions of physical therapists and physical therapist assistants in South Dakota law to include those who hold a "compact privilege"—a credential that allows licensed practitioners from other states to practice in South Dakota under an interstate agreement. The changes clarify that both physical therapists and their assistants with compact privileges have the same legal standing as those licensed directly by South Dakota.
