I prefer the idea of keeping at the state level and requiring some sort of mandated reciprocity.

From my observation, the biggest difference between states' requirements is not training issues, but how, and how extensive, background checks are performed. For example, the main reason Illinois doesn't recognize TX LTC is because we don't mandate annual mental health reports. If the Feds could somehow standardize that while allowing the states to control their own programs, would go a long way to reciprocity.
