160.988 Licensure Restoration Process:
MSSNY supports the following recommendations of the Office of the Professions, New York State Education Department, to improve and streamline the license restoration process: An in-depth license restoration application to be developed with the burden being placed on the physician to explain why he or she should have the license back.The establishment of a minimum waiting period of three years between the time a physician’s license is revoked and the time that a physician may reapply for license restoration. The minimum waiting period is currently one year.A graduated application fee for restoration is to be set so the physician covers the administrative cost of the restoration. There is currently no fee or charge.The need for a personal appearance in every case is to be eliminated, but to permit the state board the option of calling for a personal appearance.
