22.2 RULES AND REGULATIONSEQUIREMENTS
A. If the aApplicant has practiced medicine only for a portion of the two year period immediately preceding the filing of the application, the Board may determine on a case by case basis in its discretion whether the aApplicant has adequately demonstrated continued competency to practice medicine.

Although the Board retains the discretion as to the method of determining continued competency based on the aApplicant’s specific circumstances, a competency assessment or evaluation conducted by a Board-approved program is the Board’s standard operating procedure.
C. If the Board determines that the aApplicant requires a period of supervised practice and/or the completion of an educational program (hereinafter "training requirements"), the Board at its discretion may either issue the aApplicant a license subject to probationary terms or a reentry license.
D. REENTRY LICENSE: The Board will consider an aApplicant to be ineligible for a reentry license if their period of inactive practice resulted from disciplinary action or unprofessional conduct. If a reentry license is issued, such a license is valid only for three (3) years from the date of issue and is not renewable. Failure to complete the training requirements before the end of the three (3) year period will result in the reentry license being administratively inactivated.
