Oklahoma Medical Board Launches Streamlined Licensure Process for Physician Assistants
FSMB, AAPA partner to improve license portability for PAs
Washington, D.C. (August 29, 2017) – The Oklahoma Board of Medical Licensure and Supervision has launched the Uniform Application (UA) for physician assistants (PAs) to simplify and streamline the application process for PAs seeking licensure in multiple states. The UA for PAs, developed by the Federation of State Medical Boards (FSMB) in coordination with the American Academy of PAs (AAPA), allows applicants to complete one core application that can be saved and sent to multiple state medical boards at once. The UA eliminates the need for applicants to re-enter the same data multiple times for each individual state they wish to practice in.
“We are excited to offer the Uniform Application to help improve license portability for PAs across the country,” said Humayun Chaudhry, DO, MACP, President and CEO of the FSMB. “Making the licensure process more efficient will help attract more qualified PAs to practice in multiple states and expand access to care.”
“While simplifying the licensure process for PAs, the new Uniform Application is also a win for patients as PAs will have greater flexibility to move from state-to-state to meet local healthcare needs,” said L. Gail Curtis, PA-C, MPAS, DFAAPA, President and Chair of the AAPA Board of Directors.
“This is a huge move forward in convenience for PAs,” said Lyle Kelsey, Executive Director of the Oklahoma Board of Medical Licensure and Supervision. “Many PAs wish to practice in multiple states, and the old licensure process could be very tedious and cumbersome. The UA for PAs will make it a much simpler, faster process.”
The UA offers many benefits to PA applicants, including:
• Auto-populating key data, saving PAs time by eliminating the need to re-enter
information multiple times
• Storing applicant information in a permanent data repository, which is available to
them when they apply for licensure in states that have adopted the UA for PAs
• Auto-populating credentialing data for users of the FSMB’s Federation
Credentials Verification Service (FCVS)
The Oklahoma Board of Medical Licensure and Supervision is the first state medical
board to initiate the use of the UA specifically for PAs, with more boards expected to join
in the near future. The UA system designated for physicians is currently used by 27 state
medical boards, and has helped more than 80,000 physicians apply for licensure in
multiple states.

Outbreak of Syphilis in Oklahoma County:
Update and Announcement of Continuing Education Opportunity on August 23, 2017
Summary
The Oklahoma State Department of Health (OSDH) and the Oklahoma City-County Health Department (OCCHD) are reminding healthcare providers in the Oklahoma City metro area of an ongoing outbreak of syphilis. There have now been 190 outbreak-associated cases identified and more than 800 contact investigations have been initiated. Risk factors associated with the current outbreak include drug use, exchange of sex for drugs or money, and multiple sexual partners. Public health officials are advising increased awareness and testing of persons at risk for sexually-transmitted infections, or those who present with signs and symptoms consistent with the various stages of syphilis. All pregnant women should be tested for syphilis at their first prenatal visit and again during their third trimester. Any identified cases should be rapidly reported to the OSDH HIV/STD Service at (405) 271-4636 for case management and contact investigation.
A continuing education webinar entitled “A Call to Action: Syphilis in Oklahoma” will be offered August 23, 2017, 11:00 – noon to provide more information about syphilis trends, emerging clinical issues and congenital syphilis. For more information and registration, click here:

If you are applying for a PA license for the first-time in Oklahoma, our Online Application system now supports importing of Uniform Application data from the Federation of State Medical Boards (FSMB). This functionality has been available to MDs for some time, but we are now happy to announce that we have added the ability to import applicant data from FSMB.
This is optional to the applicant, not a requirement. If you already have a PA application stored in the FSMB's Uniform Application system, you may log on there and submit your information to the State of Oklahoma. You will then be given a "Submit ID" number which you can then use to import all of your information from FSMB into the Oklahoma Online Application system. This not only saves you some typing, but it also ensures accuracy among all applications you have filed with various states. If you think you might want to apply for licensure in more than one state, you should definitely consider using FSMB's Uniform Application. With it, you can enjoy the convenience of entering your information only once and other participating states can retrieve it with your approval.
