BILL NUMBER: S6166

SPONSOR: ASHBY
 
TITLE OF BILL:

An act to amend the education law and the state finance law, in relation
to establishing the New York state preceptor stipend program

 
PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:

This bill creates a $5,000 stipend and the New York State Preceptor
Stipend Program.

 
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:

Section 1 establishes the name of the program: "New York State Preceptor
Stipend Program"

Section 2 declares the legislative intent.

Section 3 creates a $5,000 stipend to be administrated by the New York
State Preceptor Stipend Program within the Office of Professions under

the NYS Education Law. The stipend would be given to preceptor clini-
cians who have successfully applied and been accepted to enter into a
clinical preceptorship with a student enrolled in a NYS-based education
program to become a physician, physician assistant, specialist assist-
ant, certified registered nurse anesthetist, registered professional
nurse, nurse practitioner, clinical nurse specialist or midwife. Precep-
tor instruction would include family medicine, internal medicine, pedia-
trics, obstetrics and gynecology, emergency medicine, psychiatry and
general surgery.

Section 4 amends state finance law to allow for stipend payments to
occur out of the Office of the Professions Account.

Section 5 authorizes this act to take effect on the 180th day after it
becomes law. Effective immediately, the addition, amendment and/or
repeal of any rule or regulation necessary for the implementation of
this act on its effective date are authorized to be made and completed
on or before such effective date.

 
JUSTIFICATION:

New York State healthcare is in crisis from staffing shortages that are
exacerbated by staff burnout. Quality preceptorships are an essential
component of clinical professional development, and also a powerful tool
for recruitment and retention in the healthcare industry. By providing
supervision during clinical practice and facilitating the application of
theory to practice for students and staff learners, preceptors can help
promote self-awareness and critical thinking for students. That confi-
dence and on-the-job training will foster a healthy mentorship and
encourage future health care professionals to pursue their health career
in New York State.

Preceptorships, however, are a time-consuming commitment and health care
workers in NYS are hard-pressed to add more to their plates. A stipend
program would incentivize health care professionals to be preceptors and
take on the responsibility of training future health professionals. This
bill creates a $5,000 stipend to be given to preceptor clinicians who
have successfully applied and been accepted to enter into a clinical
preceptorship through the "New York State Preceptor Stipend Program."

 
PRIOR LEGISLATIVE HISTORY:

New bill.

 
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:

To be determined.

 
EFFECTIVE DATE:
This act shall take effect on the 180th day after it shall have become a
law. Effective immediately, the addition, amendment and/or repeal of any
rule or regulation necessary for the implementation of this act on its
effective date are authorized to be made and completed on or before such
effective date.
