§ 1656. Renewal of certification
(a) Certifications shall be renewed every two years. At least one month prior to the date on which renewal is required, the Board shall send to each anesthesiologist assistant a renewal application form and notice of the date on which the existing certification will expire. On or before the renewal date, the anesthesiologist assistant shall file an application for renewal, pay the required fee, and submit proof of current active NCCAA certification. The Board shall register the applicant and issue the renewal certification. Within one month following the date renewal is required, the Board shall pay the certification renewal fees into the Medical Practice Board Special Fund.
(b) Subsection (b) effective 60 days after the adoption of board rules.
A certification that has lapsed may be reinstated on payment of a renewal fee and a late renewal fee. The applicant shall not be required to pay back renewal fees for the periods when certification was lapsed. However, if such certification remains lapsed for a period of three years, the Board may require the applicant to update his or her knowledge and skills as defined by Board rules.
