Medical licensing is far more complex and time consuming than most realize. PLS can help you provide your doctors with the tools and information they need to smoothly navigate the licensing process.

1. Reciprocity

·         Reciprocity is a thing of the past.  You can no longer send the Board an application and fee and get a license within a couple of weeks.

·         Contrary to popular belief, holding a license in one state does not mean that it will be easy to get a license in another state.  In fact, every license held creates another step in the process.

·         Medical Boards now require that your doctors complete detailed and lengthy applications and forms.  An average licensure process takes 8-hours to accurately complete the initial research and paperwork… and this is the easy part.

·         Lengthy verification processes.  State Boards now require that your doctors provide direct verification of their education, post-graduate training, license verification, work history, hospital privileges, references, and several additional profiles, queries and reviews. The verification process will leave your doctors searching for information, making dozens of phone calls (at least 4 calls per verification to do it properly), waiting on hold and at times getting nowhere!

2. Eligibility Minimums have been imposed

·         Just because your doctor holds a license in one state does not mean that they will be eligible for a license in your state.

·         There are 10 states that now require that your doctors take an $800, general medicine competency exam if they do not meet certain eligibility minimums. Before recruiting a new physician you MUST know your candidate’s eligibility or you will lose those that run into eligibility issues. 

3. Long Review processes

·         Board estimated averages range from 3 months to 9 months.  There are measurable steps that can be taken to cut through the red tape and get your doctors licensed fast.
