Oklahoma Administrative Code › Title 310 - Oklahoma State Department of Health › Chapter 679 - LONG-TERM CARE ADMINISTRATORS › Subchapter 10 - Licensing of Long-Term care Administrators › Part 3 - APPLICATION FOR LONG TERM CARE ADMINISTRATOR LICENSURE › Section 310:679-10-15 - Application for licensure/certification/registration renewal

Current through Vol. 41, No. 20, July 1, 2024
(a) Each applicant for a renewal of a
				  license, certification or registration shall:
(1) File an application, on the form and in
				  the manner as prescribed by the Board (online), prior to the expiration date of
				  the current license/certification/registration.
(2) Submit evidence, upon request,
				  satisfactory to the Board that the applicant has successfully completed the
				  hours of continuing education as required for license renewal. During the
				  renewal process, licensees certify that they have or will have accomplished the
				  required continuing education requirements during the licensure year. The Board
				  conducts random audits of this accomplishment each year per OAC
				  490:1-9-5(c).
(3) Be in compliance pursuant to 68 O.S.
				  Section 238.1 with State income tax requirements. If a licensee whose license
				  is on 'active' status is found to be in non-compliance with these State income
				  tax requirements:
(A) such license shall not
				  be renewed; and
(B) licensee shall
				  not have recourse against the Board for non- renewal of his license.
(4) Submit to a criminal
				  background check. Concurrent with the annual CE audits conducted per OAC
				  490:1-9-5(c),
				  the Board will randomly select not less than a five (5%) percent sample from
				  all renewed licenses against which sample the Board will perform criminal
				  background checks. If the results of a criminal background check reveal that a
				  licensee has been convicted of or pleaded guilty or nolo contendere to any
				  misdemeanor involving moral turpitude or to any felony, or to any of the
				  barrier offenses listed at OAC
				  490:10-1-2.1, the licensee will
				  be subject to Board sanction(s), including license suspension or
				  revocation.
(5) Remit the Annual
				  License Renewal fee as prescribed by the Board at OAC
				  490:1-7-2 and ensure all
				  outstanding fees and fines owed to the Board have been paid. If a licensee has
				  outstanding fees or fines owed to the Board, licensee shall not be permitted to
				  renew his license until the same have been paid in full to the Board, provided
				  that such payment is made prior to the expiration of the current license. If
				  such payment is not made prior to the expiration date of the current license,
				  licensee no longer holds a valid license and licensee is considered to have
				  abandoned his license and the practice of long term care administration, and
				  the Board shall take action to formally vacate his license. If this occurs, and
				  if he wishes to resume the practice of long term care administration, he must
				  re-apply to the Board, fully satisfy any/all outstanding fees or fines owed to
				  the Board, and meet current requirements for initial licensure as a long term
				  care administrator.
