Online
Renewal Applications
The
Kansas Board of Pharmacy licensees and registrants may have
noticed significant changes in renewal notice format over
the past few years. Instead of receiving a printed renewal
application form, each licensee/registrant received a Notice
of Renewal Application that included directions for online
renewal. Watch for your Notice of Renewal Application in the
mail.
Advantages
of renewing online
Fast—it only takes a few minutes and you will receive
a confirmation when you finish so you will know your renewal
is complete. In most instances, your new license is mailed
to you the next business day after you renew or sometimes
the same day. Your renewed license information will be available
on our License Verification database the day after you renew.
Convenient—you
can complete your renewal 24 hours a day, seven days a week
at any location with Internet access.
Accurate
– you enter all of your information and the on-line renewal
will not allow you to leave required information blank. Your
renewal form won’t be returned because you left something
blank or forgot to sign it.
No
lost payments—you use a credit card or electronic check
to renew.
No
postage required—your renewal notice won’t be returned
to you because you forgot to put a stamp on it.
Won’t
get lost in the mail—the confirmation you receive will
allow your renewal application to be traced should any problems
arise.
There
are some cases where individuals are not eligible to use the
online license renewal process at this time. Obtain a printed
renewal form if:
Initiating or renewing inactive license status - Renewing
an exempt license
- If
your license has been disciplined, under investigation,
or you have had other legal issues, the system will not
allow you to renew your license online.
If
you have more than one license and you would only like to
renew one.
Employers are encouraged to consider making a computer with
Internet access available for their employees to use at the
work site for the purpose of license renewal. This will accommodate
early license renewal by employees and result in fewer last
minute renewal problems. Remember that renewals postmarked
after your license expiration will be considered lapsed. Any
licensee or registrant practicing on a lapsed license can
and will be fined. Don’t delay, renew as soon as you
receive the notice to avoid penalties and delays in receiving
your renewed license.
The
Board of Pharmacy urges you to take advantage of the online
renewal process. However, if you are unable to renew online
please contact our office at (785) 296-4056 to request a printed
renewal form.
