Minnesota Board of Medical Practice Ceases Operations

Thursday, July 7th, 2011 | Comments POSTED BY: Shauna Shanley FILED UNDER: Licensing and Credentialing

VISTA Staffing Solutions wants you to know that if you are applying for or renewing a license in the state of Minnesota; the state government shutdown will affect you.

As of July 1, 2011, the Minnesota Legislature and Governor Dayton have failed to reach an agreement to fund state government. As a result, the Minnesota Board of Medical Practice is required to cease all operations.

The July 9, 2011 board meeting will be postponed and no licenses will be issued and no disciplinary actions taken. Please note the following:

  • All temporary permits expiring on July 9, 2011 are valid until the next board meeting. The new board meeting date will be announced when the board re-opens.
  • During this period of shutdown, online services including online renewal and professional profile will be unavailable.
  • License status is available online at www.docboard.org/mn/df/mndf.htm

 If you have any questions, you can reach the VISTA Licensing Department at  800-366-1884.
