Temporary health care access for Ironman athletes

The law temporarily let certain out-of-state health professionals provide care without first getting a New York license or certification. Eligible professions included physicians, physician assistants, massage therapists, physical therapists, chiropractors, dentists, optometrists, nurses, nurse practitioners, emergency medical technicians, podiatrists, and athletic trainers. They needed a license or certification from another state or territory and had to be in good standing there. The World Triathlon Corporation had to appoint them to serve at a New York event it sanctioned. They could serve athletes and team personnel registered for training in New York or competition at corporation-sanctioned New York events. Permission ran July 16–21, 2025, around Ironman Lake Placid on July 20, 2025. The law took effect immediately and was repealed on July 23, 2025. This temporary permission has ended.
