Inactive Status. A licensee in good standing who will not practice medicine in this State may apply for inactive status. A licensee applying for an inactive license shall pay the inactive license fee and any additional charges set by the Board. A licensee may apply for inactive status if the licensee has an unrestricted active license to practice medicine in this State or is within 60 days of the expiration of the licensee’s unrestricted active license. Renewal. An inactive status shall be renewed every 2 years. At the end of 2 years, a licensee with inactive status shall complete the renewal application, and pay the renewal fee, and any charges set by the Board. If the licensee fails to renew their inactive license for any reason, the license will expire.
