Detailed Breakdown

Virginia Physician Assistant Standard Renewal Requirements: Physician Assistants in Virginia renew their licenses biennially in the odd year during their birth month and must maintain current certification by the NCCPA or an equivalent certification body to fulfill CME requirements. Mandatory CME topics include a one-hour course on
human trafficking recognition and response
during each renewal cycle. Compliance with CME for other topics is generally satisfied through NCCPA certification, simplifying renewal documentation. These regulations are overseen by the Virginia Board of Medicine
Virginia PA Renewal Rule
