In the case of a State that has not, by the date that is 3 years after the date of the enactment of this Act, joined, through enactment of a State law, the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact facilitating physician interstate licensure, as of the day after such 3-year period, the State shall not be eligible for any funds or assistance administered by the Bureau of Health Workforce of the Health Resources and Services Administration of the Department of Health and Human Services. In the case of a State that becomes ineligible for such funds or assistance pursuant to the previous sentence, if such State after such 3-year date joins, through enactment of a State law, the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact, the Secretary of Health and Human Services may determine such State is no longer ineligible for such funds or assistance pursuant to the previous sentence.
