A. All osteopathic physicians legally licensed to practice osteopathic medicine in this state shall, on or before July 1 of the third year after first-time licensure or the last licensure renewal, submit proof of completion of continuing education requirements as required by the board and pay to the secretary of the board a triennial renewal fee as provided in Section 61-10-6.1 NMSA 1978 for the renewal of a license to practice osteopathic medicine. Upon payment of fees and proof of completion of continuing education requirements, the board shall issue a certificate of triennial renewal of license. B. All osteopathic physician assistants legally licensed to practice osteopathic medicine in this state shall, on or before July 1 of the second year after first-time licensure or the last licensure renewal, submit proof of completion of continuing education requirements as required by the board and pay to the secretary of the board a biennial renewal fee as provided in Section 61-10-6.1 NMSA 1978 for the renewal of a license to practice osteopathic medicine. Upon payment of fees and proof of completion of continuing education requirements, the board shall issue a certificate of biennial renewal of license. C. The chair of the board shall send a written notice to every osteopathic physician and osteopathic physician assistant holding a legal certificate to practice osteopathic medicine in this state at least thirty days prior to July 1 of the year in which the osteopathic physician or osteopathic physician assistant is due for renewal of licensure. The notice shall be directed to the last known address of the licensee, and notify the licensee that it will be necessary to pay the license renewal fee. Proper forms shall accompany the notice, and the licensee shall make application for the renewal of the licensee's certificate on these forms. The fact that a licensee has not received the licensee's blank form from the board shall not, however, relieve the licensee of the duty to register on or before July 1 of the year of renewal nor shall the board's failure to mail the forms operate to exempt the osteopathic physician or osteopathic physician assistant from the penalties provided in the Osteopathic Medicine Act.
