A new temporary law in Vermont allows healthcare and mental health professionals with licenses in other states to practice in Vermont without the usual requirements to obtain a Vermont license. Those with an inactive Vermont license within the last three years may also reactivate their licenses. New graduates who have been unable to take their licensing exam can be issued temporary licenses without paying licensure fees. The new law also expands access to telehealth and allows pharmacists to extend previously prescribed maintenance prescriptions or provide substitution of medications if originally prescribed drugs are unavailable.
