The general assembly hereby finds that a lack of access to quality, affordable health-care services is an increasing problem, both in Colorado and nationwide, and contributes to the spiraling costs of health care for individuals and businesses. This problem could be alleviated by greater interstate cooperation among, and mobility of, medical professionals through the use of telemedicine and other means. Therefore, it is desirable to authorize the executive director of the department of regulatory agencies, together with the Colorado medical board created in section 12-240-105 and the state board of nursing created in section 12-255-105, and in consultation with representatives of other relevant state agencies, to negotiate one or more interstate compacts endorsing model legislation to facilitate the efficient distribution of health-care services across state lines.
