A bill to amend 1978 PA 368, entitled “Public health code,” by amending sections 18221, 18223, 18233, and 18237 (MCL 333.18221, 333.18223, 333.18233, and 333.18237), section 18221 as amended by 2006 PA 395, section 18223 as amended by 2018 PA 24, section 18233 as amended by 1994 PA 234, and section 18237 as amended by 1998 PA 496.
House Bill 5785 proposes to replace three public members on the Michigan board of psychology with licensed psychologists. The current board has four public members and two psychologists; the proposed reconstituted board would have only one public member and five psychologists.
It would also create a new limited license to practice psychology to an applicant with at least a master's degree in psychology plus at least 4,000 hours of supervised postgraduate experience in an organized health care setting or other arrangement.
