Full text of New Jersey New Jersey Statutes § 45:5-9, with citation guidance and answers to common questions.
§ 45:5-9.
a. Every licensed podiatrist shall procure every two years from the executive director
of the board, on or before November 1, a biennial certificate of registration, which
shall be issued by the executive director upon payment of a fee to be determined by
the board. The executive director shall mail to each licensed podiatrist on or before October
1 every two years a printed blank form to be properly filled in and returned to the
executive director by such licensed person on or before the succeeding November 1,
together with such fee. Upon the receipt of said form properly filled in, and such fee, the biennial certificate
of registration shall be issued and transmitted. Every licensed podiatrist who continues the practice of podiatric medicine after having failed to secure a biennial certificate of registration at the time
and in the manner required by this section shall be subject to a penalty of $25.00
for each failure. Immediately after November 1, the executive director shall send by registered mail
to every podiatrist who has failed to obtain a biennial registration certificate for
the ensuing two-year period a notice that their license will be automatically suspended
within 30 days unless the penalty and registration fee is paid immediately. Upon failure to register after such notice, the license of such person shall be
automatically suspended and shall not be reinstated except upon full payment of penalty
and registration fee. However, such suspension shall not apply to anyone who has ceased to practice in
this State. Any person whose license shall have been automatically suspended under this section
shall during such period of suspension be regarded as an unlicensed person, and if
he continues to engage in the practice of podiatric medicine during such period, he shall be liable to the penalties prescribed by R.S.45:5-11 . b. If an applicant for reinstatement of licensure has not engaged in practice in any
jurisdiction for a period of more than five years, or the board's review of the reinstatement
application establishes a basis for concluding that there may be clinical deficiencies
in need of remediation, before reinstatement the board may require the applicant to
submit to, and successfully pass, an examination or an assessment of skills. If that examination or assessment identifies clinical deficiencies or educational
needs, the board may require the licensee, as a condition of reinstatement of licensure,
to take and successfully complete any educational training, or to submit to any supervision,
monitoring or limitations, as the board determines are necessary to assure that the
licensee practices with reasonable skill and safety.
