Current through Reg. 49, No. 38; September 20, 2024

(a) Medical physicists licensed by the board shall register biennially and pay a fee. A medical physicist may, on notification from the board, renew an unexpired licensed by submitting a required form and paying the required renewal fee to the board on or before the expiration date of the license. The fee shall accompany a written application that sets forth the licensee's name, mailing address, residence, the address of each of the licensee's offices, and other necessary information prescribed by the board.

(b) The board may prorate the length of the initial medical physicist registration and registration fees, so that registrations expire on a single date, regardless of the board meeting at which the medical physicist is licensed.

(c) The board shall provide written notice to each licensee at the licensee's address of record at least 30 days prior to the expiration date of the license.

(d) Within 30 days of a medical physicist's change of mailing, residence or office address from the address on file with the board, a medical physicist shall notify the board in writing of such change.

(e) A licensee shall furnish a written explanation of his or her affirmative answer to any question asked on the application for license renewal, if requested by the board. This explanation shall include all details as the board may request and shall be furnished within 14 days of the date of the board's request.

(f) Falsification of an affidavit or submission of false information to obtain renewal of a license shall subject a medical physicist to denial of the renewal and/or to discipline pursuant to §602.301 of the Act.

(g) Expired Annual Registration Permits.

(1) If a medical physicist's registration permit has been expired for 90 days or less, the medical physicist may obtain a new permit by submitting to the board a completed permit application, the registration fee, and a penalty fee in an amount equal to one-half of the amount of the renewal fee.

(2) If a medical physicist's registration permit has been expired for longer than 90 days but less than one year, the medical physicist may obtain a new permit by submitting a completed permit application, the registration fee, and a penalty fee equal to the amount of the renewal fee.

(3) If a medical physicist's registration permit has been expired for one year or longer, the medical physicist's license is automatically canceled, unless an investigation is pending, and the medical physicist may not obtain a new permit.

(4) A medical physicist may not hold himself out as a licensed medical physicist if he holds an expired permit.

(h) A military service member who holds a medical physicist license in Texas is entitled to two years of additional time to complete any other requirement related to the renewal of the military service member's license.
