Inactive Status

An inactive license is one that is not current and active. One whose license is inactive may not practice or prescribe.

Physicians or acupuncturists who want their license to become inactive may do so by sending in a request to the board office by mail or e-mail, or by failing to renew the license by the first day of the third month after the expiration date.  For example, a licensee whose license expires on January 1 will be considered inactive if the license is not renewed by March
