It requires the state medical board to implement procedures to review and process license applications within 90 days of submission. Additionally, if the board does not make a determination on a renewal application within 90 days, the bill mandates the board to issue a temporary registration to the physician, allowing them to complete the credentialing and privileging process at the hospital where they work or will be employed.
