Sec. 16.
Inactive licenses.
Any podiatric physician who notifies the
Department in writing on forms prescribed by the Department, may elect to
place his or her license on an inactive status and shall, subject to rules
of the
Department, be excused from payment of renewal fees and compliance with
continuing education requirements until he or she notifies the Department
in writing
of his or her desire to resume active status.
Any podiatric physician requesting restoration from inactive status shall
be required to complete the continuing education requirements for a single
