FAQ #1: What is the difference between a Primary Source Verification vs a License Verification?

Response: Primary Source Verification provides minimal information such as; license number, licensee name, status, and specialty. This verification is free of charge. License Verification provides extended information regarding a licensee such as; license number, licensee name, statues, effective date, expiration date, specialty, and disciplinary information (if any). The verification fee is $25 for Physician Assistants and Podiatrists, and $50 for all other disciplines.
