Updated August 10, 2022. Information may have since changed.

When you  work locum tenens, you may desire to practice in various states. As you know, medical licensure fees and requirements—as well as the timeframes for processing applications and documentation—vary from state to state. There are a lot of variables to consider, such as how quickly medical schools/postgraduate training programs provide primary source information to a given board or when background check results are returned. Additionally, the board’s workload and the volume of applications it processes could impact the timeline. 

We have compiled a list of every medical board/licensing authority in the United States to provide you with information in a single, convenient location. We have provided contact information and the average time to obtain a license for each state and have noted where Federation Credentials Verifications Service (FCVS) is accepted or required.
