Have You
Renewed Your License?
Approximately half of
The Board of Medicine has made this easy
by putting the renewal process online. To renew online, go to
www.flhealthsource.com and click on
"Licensees/Provider" and then "Renew License." You will
need an account/user ID number and password, which was included in your license
renewal notice sent in October. If you do not have
your notice, you may email licensure_services@doh.state.fl.us or call 850.488.0595, and press
menu option 3. One of the benefits of
renewing online (especially this late in the game) is that
physicians can immediately print out proof of renewal to provide to any
hospitals, etc. that may require this information. Renewing through the
mail may cause a delay in receiving proof of renewal.
Keep an eye out for your 2009 DCMS
Directories!
The always anticipated DCMS Directories are being
mailed next week so keep an eye out for your 2009 version! A form to order additional copies is included
with the directories, or you can download a DCMS member
order form (PDF file) from our website to get a head start.
