N.J. Admin. Code § 13:35-3.14 - Biennial license renewal
(a) All licenses
issued by the Board shall be issued for a two-year biennial licensure period. A
licensee who seeks renewal of the license shall submit a renewal application
and the renewal fee set forth in
N.J.A.C.
13:35-6.13 prior to the expiration date of
the license.
(b) The Board shall
send a notice of renewal to each licensee at the address registered with the
Board at least 60 days prior to the expiration of the license. The notice of
renewal shall explain inactive renewal and advise the licensee of the option to
renew as inactive. If the notice to renew is not sent at least 60 days prior to
the expiration date, no monetary penalties or fines shall apply to the holder
for failure to renew, provided that the license is renewed within 60 days from
the date the notice is sent or within 30 days following the date of license
expiration, whichever is later.
(c)
Licensees may renew their license by choosing inactive status. Licensees
electing to renew as inactive shall not engage in the practice of medicine or
surgery or podiatry or hold themselves out as eligible to engage in the
practice of medicine or surgery or podiatry in New Jersey until such time as
the license is returned to active status.
(d) If a licensee does not renew the license
prior to its expiration date, the licensee may renew the license within 30 days
of its expiration by submitting a renewal application, a renewal fee and a late
fee, as set forth in
N.J.A.C.
13:35-6.13. During this 30-day period, the
license shall be valid, and the licensee shall not be deemed to be practicing
without a license.
(e) A licensee
who fails to submit a renewal application within 30 days of license expiration
shall have the license suspended without a hearing.
(f) A licensee who continues to engage in the
practice of medicine or surgery or podiatry with a suspended license shall be
deemed to be engaging in the unlicensed practice of medicine or surgery or
podiatry and shall be subject to action consistent with
N.J.S.A.
45:1-14 et seq., even if no notice of
suspension has been provided to the individual.
