(a) Temporary license to practice medicine means a license to practice medicine for a limited duration issued pursuant to these rules. A temporary license is effective from the date of issuance until the later of a vote of board members on the application pursuant to these rules, or 8:00 a.m. on the first day of the next regularly-scheduled board meeting. Except as otherwise provided in this chapter, temporary licenses issued less than fifteen (15) business days prior to the next regularly-scheduled board meeting will be valid until the later of a vote of board members on the application pursuant to these rules, or 8:00 a.m. on first day of the second regularly-scheduled board meeting after issuance.
(b) Upon written request received from the holder of a temporary license not less than seven (7) days before expiration of the temporary license the executive director may extend a temporary license for an additional term no longer than the later of a vote of board members on the application pursuant to these rules, or the date of the next regularly-scheduled board meeting after extension of the temporary license. The holder of a temporary license may request no more than one (1) extension of the temporary license under this subsection.
(c) If, upon review of the application of a person who is granted a temporary license, one or more board members request that the holder of the temporary license appear for a licensure interview, the executive director may extend the temporary license held by that person until 8:00 a.m. on the first day of the second regularly-scheduled board meeting after issuance of the temporary license. In no event, however, shall a temporary license issued under Section 5(b)(i) of this chapter be valid more than 180 days from the original date of issuance.
(d) All applicants who are granted a temporary license under Section 5(b)(i) of this chapter are required to submit all documentation and materials necessary to ensure that their license application is complete in accordance with Section 4 of this chapter. Failure to have a complete license application within 180 days of issuance of a temporary license shall result in referral of the application to the application review committee to bring proceedings to deny the application upon stated reasons pursuant to W.S. 33-26-202(b)(i) following the procedure set forth in Chapter 7 of these Rules.
