2026-219 IP Rule Med 300 various
Summary
New Hampshire's Board of Medicine has filed an initial proposal to readopt with amendment the Med 300 series, governing physician licensure requirements, application procedures, and license categories. The proposed changes update definitions for license types including administrative, special, courtesy, and temporary licenses; revise the application process to reference the OPLC Universal Application; restructure the application addendum requirements; and add a criminal history records check requirement for initial applicants under RSA 329:11-a. The changes are technical and administrative in nature, with no new federal mandate cited.
What this may mean
Physicians applying for initial licensure in New Hampshire face a restructured application process, including a new criminal history records check requirement and updated addendum disclosures covering DEA registration history and board certification. The rule changes are primarily administrative and affect physician applicants and the licensure pipeline, not billing, contracting, or compliance programs of healthcare organizations. No new obligations are created for hospitals, health plans, or other healthcare entities.
