Licensure during COVID

The identification and implementation of effective licensing strategies regarding licensure portability and telehealth has become one of the more pressing concerns for state professional licensing boards, even more so during COVID-19.  Governors and state professional licensing boards have been working to establish mechanisms to effectively continue the delivery of professional services while maintaining the highest level of public protection.
