Renewal Warning

Important Warning Regarding License Renewal Arizona Medical Board

Renewal applicants should submit their renewal applications as early as possible. A.R.S. 32-1430(A) requires that a person holding an active medical license shall renew the license on or before the licensee’s birthday. Any renewal submitted 30 days after the licensee’s birthday must also include a penalty fee of $350.00. PLEASE be aware that if a renewal application is not complete within four months after the licensee’s birthday, the license will expire. The renewal is not considered administratively complete until all required documents are submitted including:

  • A completed application with payment. Leaving one box unchecked on your application may constitute an incomplete application form.
  • Proof of lawful presence in the United States (if applicable);
  • Verification of Completed Continuing Medical Education (if randomly selected for audit); and
  • Corresponding documentation regarding any “yes” answers on the Questionnaire and Confidential Questionnaire section of the renewal application.

If the license expires before a timely and sufficient renewal application is submitted to the Board, the physician must cease practicing medicine in Arizona and must reapply for and receive a new Arizona license before resuming the practice of medicine in this State.


Notice Regarding Physician Profiles

Effective the week of August 12, 2013, the Arizona Medical Board will remove information regarding Board Certification from its physician website profiles. Each physician profile will continue to include a link to the American Board of Medical Specialties website at: www.abms.org
