Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. R. 360-10-.04 - Renewal
(1) Each licensee
shall notify the Board within thirty (30) days, in writing, of all changes of
address. Any mailing or notice from the Board shall be considered to be served
on the licensee when sent to the licensee's last address on file with the
Board.
(2) All active licenses must
be renewed every two years. This may be done via the internet or through mail.
A medical licensee may not practice medicine after the expiration date of the
license. Institutional licenses expire biennially on June 30th and the licensee
must establish satisfaction of Board-approved continuing education requirements
to be eligible for renewal.
(3) To
be eligible for renewal, the license holder must furnish certification that he
or she continues to be an employee of the Institution where he or she is
employed as indicated on the renewal form, complete Board approved continuing
education of not less than 40 hours of Category I AMA approved credits annually
and submit the appropriate fee.
(4)
Licensees have the right to obtain a late renewal of their licenses during the
three (3) month period immediately following the expiration date. During this
period, the penalty fee for late renewal applies.
(5) The Board shall administratively revoke
any license not renewed prior to the expiration of the late renewal period.
Such revocation removes all rights and privileges to practice medicine and
surgery in this State. A licensee who is so revoked must re-apply for licensure
to be considered for reinstatement. Revocation for failure to renew may be
reported to the public and to other state licensing boards, and will be
reported as a revocation for failure to renew. Revocation for failure to renew
is not considered a disciplinary revocation. However, the license may only be
reinstated through application.
(6)
The fee for renewals and late renewals shall be designated in the fee schedule.
Deposit of the renewal fee by the Board does not indicate acceptance of the
renewal application or that any permit requirements have been
fulfilled.
