License and requirements
Most allied health roles need a national certification (for example ARRT for radiologic technologists, NBRC for respiratory therapists, NBSTSA for surgical technologists) and, in many states, a state license. Therapists (PT, OT, SLP) need a license from Texas; the PT and OT compacts let licensed therapists from member states get privileges faster.
