Georgia Medical Board

The Georgia Medical Board has a standard licensure process. Medical Licenses are typically issued between 1 1/2 to 3 1/2 months from the time the application is filed. A temporary license is available once the Georgia Medical Board has acknowledged receipt of all required Applications. The temporary license will allow the physician to practice while awaiting the full board meeting at the beginning of each month. There is a temporary license available but because of the way it is structured, very few physicians are able to utilize it. The Temporary is only issued after the file is complete. The Temporary is only issued after the Board sends written notice to the physician that the file is complete. Then the physician has to file the temporary application with payment. This cannot be filed before the letter is received. Then the temporary license is issued a week or so later. By this time, the Board meeting has arrived and the license is issued. So the Temporary is very rarely utilized with the Georgia Medical Board. All files have to be deemed complete 2-3 weeks before the Board meeting to be placed on the agenda.
