Locum Tenens Registration Application
Processing Overview
YOU HAVE SUBMITTED YOUR APPLICATION, WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?
EMAIL ACKNOWLEDGEMENT: When Board staff has received your application packet, you will be sent an email acknowledging
receipt. If you do not provide an email address, no acknowledgement will be sent. This acknowledgement does not mean that
all required documents have been received.
FINGERPRINT PACKET: As of September 1, 2017, locum tenens registration applicants are required to undergo fingerprinting per
A.R.S. § 32-1823 and § 32-1822(A)(9). A fingerprint packet will be sent to you at the mailing address you provided on your
application. Follow the instructions in the fingerprint packet to avoid delays or having to repeat submission of your fingerprints.
Your application will remain administratively incomplete until the fingerprint processing is complete.
ADMINISTRATIVELY COMPLETE/DEFICIENCY LETTER: Within thirty (30) days after receipt of the application, staff will mail a
letter to you listing the missing or incomplete information needed to complete your application.
If all the documents on the checklist have been received, you will not receive this letter.
ADMINISTRATIVELY COMPLETE: After everything on the checklist has been received, the Board staff will independently obtain
the following:
1. National Practitioner Data Bank report
2. Federation of State Medical Board’s Practitioner Profile
At this point your application is administratively complete and moves to substantive review.
SUBSTANTIVE REVIEW: This stage of the application process is the evaluation of all answers, documents, and verifications
collected and the decision whether they demonstrate you are qualified for the locum tenens registration. You may be required
to appear before the Board at a regularly scheduled Board meeting for a decision on your application.
ISSUANCE OF LOCUM TENENS REGISTRATION: If, at the conclusion of the substantive review, your application is approved, you
will receive a letter by email and regular mail letting you know your Locum Tenens Registration has been issued. Your
registration number, effective date, and expiration date are also provided. Included with the letter is a copy of the issuance
letter and registration certificate sent to your sponsoring physician.
As of the effective date of registration you may assist or substitute for the sponsoring physician. A Locum Tenens Registration
does not authorize you to practice medicine independently in Arizona. If you want to practice in Arizona at a facility or location
other than your sponsoring physician’s practice location(s), you will need to obtain full licensure.
If your sponsoring physician wants you to continue assisting or substituting for him/her after the expiration date, the sponsoring
physician must send a written request stating the reason for the extension. Another $300 fee must be paid in order to extend
the registration for another 90 days. This request may be sent to the Board office by fax, email, or regular mail.
Arizona Revised Statutes and Rules for osteopathic licensure can be found on our website at www.azdo.gov
> Statute and Rules.
As a Locum Tenens registered physician, you will be subject to all state and local laws and regulations pertaining to public health
and subject to all the same duties and obligations and authorized to exercise all the same rights and privileges possessed by
physicians and surgeons of other complete schools of medicine in the practice of their profession per A.R.S. § 32-1852.
