Renewals: What to Know Before Your Certification Expires
Certifications are time-limited, and lapsing means restarting from scratch with your state registry. Renewing early avoids any gap.
When to renew
Most states use a one-year term, though some differ. We recommend starting your renewal 30 days before the expiration date on your certification.
How a renewal visit differs
Renewal visits are usually shorter. The physician reviews how your condition has responded, updates your history, and completes the recertification if appropriate.
Reminders and your portal
We email an expiry reminder ahead of your renewal window, and you can view your appointment history and start a renewal any time from your patient portal.
Renewing early keeps your registration active with no interruption.
