Health Care Provider Credential Data

Attention: The secretary of health extended health profession license expiration dates for licenses up for renewal between April 1 and September 30, 2020. This extension allowed health professionals to focus on patient care and to promote continued patient safety during the COVID-19 outbreak. It also provided for a reduction in economic burden for those providers who could not work. Health professional licenses that expired on September 30, 2020, and are in the renewal process, will be considered by the department as active until October 23, 2020.
Renewal processing delays may occur in October, due to a high volume of renewals being submitted at the end of September. Users of Provider Credential Search and our Health Care Provider Credential Data on this site are cautioned about using the Last Issue and Expiration dates reflected until renewal processing can be completed.
