Licensure Renewal

PURPOSE: This rule provides information to physician assistants licensed in Missouri regarding renewal of licensure. (1) The licensure renewal fee shall be an appropriate fee established by the board. Each applicant shall make application for licensure renewal with the board on application forms furnished by the board, before January 31 of the year the license is due for renewal. (2) The failure to mail the application form or the failure to receive the licensure registration renewal application form does not relieve any licensee of the duty to renew the license and pay the renewal fee, nor shall it exempt any licensee from the penalties provided in sections 334.735 to 334.748, RSMo for failure to renew. (3) Licensure renewal forms postmarked by the post office February 1 or after will be considered delinquent, however, should January 31 fall on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, renewal forms postmarked by the post office on the next business day will not be considered delinquent.
