1. Any licensee who changes the location of his or her practice of medicine from this State to another state or country, has never engaged in the practice of medicine in this State after licensure or has ceased to engage in the practice of medicine in this State for 12 consecutive months may be placed on inactive status by order of the Board. Any physician assistant who notifies the Board of his or her desire to be placed on inactive status in writing on a form prescribed by the Board may be placed on inactive status by order of the Board.

An inactive licensee who changes his or her permanent mailing address shall notify the Board in writing of the new permanent mailing address within 30 days after the change. If an inactive licensee fails to notify the Board in writing of a change in his or her permanent mailing address within 30 days after the change, the Board may impose upon the licensee a fine not to exceed $250.

4. An inactive physician assistant shall not practice as a physician assistant. The Board shall consider an inactive physician assistant who practices as a physician assistant to be practicing without a license. Such practice constitutes grounds for disciplinary action against the physician assistant in accordance with the regulations adopted by the Board pursuant to NRS 630.275 .
