If it appears to the State Board of Medical and Osteopathic Examiners by a resolution thereof duly made and adopted, that an urgent need exists in any state-owned and operated medical institution for the services of a practitioner of medicine, surgery, and obstetrics and their branches, as a state employee, which cannot be adequately and effectively served by a regularly licensed practitioner, the board may, in its discretion, grant a temporary permit to an applicant who has satisfactorily passed a special examination and paid a fee not to exceed fifty dollars for the examination, notwithstanding that the applicant has not completed the period of internship or residence training in a hospital approved by the board and has failed or has been unable to satisfactorily show that he is a graduate of an approved medical or osteopathic college. The temporary permit shall be issued and be effective for one year from the date of issuance of such permit.

Such temporary permit may be renewed by the board upon application to it on an annual basis and the payment of an annual renewal fee of not to exceed fifteen dollars. Except as may otherwise be provided in this section, applications for such temporary permits shall be processed in the same manner as regular license applications under § 36-4-11 , and the holder of any such permit is subject to all restrictions, responsibilities, and privileges inuring to regular licensees under this chapter. The examination and renewal fees provided for in this section shall be set by the board by rules promulgated pursuant to chapter 1-26 .
