148.6423 LICENSURE RENEWAL.
    Subdivision 1. Renewal requirements. To be eligible for licensure renewal, a licensee must:
(1) submit a completed and signed application for licensure renewal on forms provided
by the commissioner;
(2) submit the renewal fee required under section 148.6445;
(3) submit proof of having met the continuing education requirement of section 148.6443
on forms provided by the commissioner; and
(4) submit additional information as requested by the commissioner to clarify information
presented in the renewal application. The information must be submitted within 30 days after
the commissioner's request.
    Subd. 2. Renewal deadline. (a) Except as provided in paragraph (c), licenses must be
renewed every two years. Licensees must comply with the following procedures in paragraphs
(b) to (e):
(b) Each license must state an expiration date. An application for licensure renewal must
be received by the Department of Health or postmarked at least 30 calendar days before the
expiration date. If the postmark is illegible, the application shall be considered timely if received
at least 21 calendar days before the expiration date.
(c) If the commissioner changes the renewal schedule and the expiration date is less than
two years, the fee and the continuing education contact hours to be reported at the next renewal
must be prorated.
(d) An application for licensure renewal not received within the time required under
paragraph (b), but received on or before the expiration date, must be accompanied by a late fee
in addition to the renewal fee specified by section 148.6445.
(e) Licensure renewals received after the expiration date shall not be accepted and persons
seeking licensed status must comply with the requirements of section 148.6425.
    Subd. 3. Licensure renewal notice. At least 60 calendar days before the expiration date in
subdivision 2, the commissioner shall mail a renewal notice to the licensee's last known address on
file with the commissioner. The notice must include an application for licensure renewal and notice
of fees required for renewal. The licensee's failure to receive notice does not relieve the licensee
of the obligation to meet the renewal deadline and other requirements for licensure renewal.
