Licensure information for doctors on the move


As change continues to reshape the health care industry, more and more physicians will need to relocate, accept a job-related transfer, or seek licensure in several states. State Medical Licensure Requirements and Statistics presents accurate, state-by-state information on medical licensure in the United States for physicians, recruiters, employers, and consultants.

All the data in this annual resource are compiled from information received from state boards or medical examiners. Included are  tables on these and other data:

State-by-state licensing requirements, including examination and endorsement fees

  • State-by-state licensing requirements, including examination and endorsement fees
  • Examination pass/fail percentages
  • Licensure reregistration and CME requirements

The book also includes information on the Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates (ECFMG), Federation of State Medical Boards (FSMB), and the United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE).

For an insider's perspective on licensure, also check out Licensing and Credentialing: What Physicians Need to Know, which contains essays and articles on licensure, credentialing, certification, and continuing medical education.
