Your password is the last four numbers of your social security number. Follow the prompts as directed; do not leave out information or the system will not process. When you are required to enter a numerical zero (“0”) do not enter the letter “O” or the system will not process.

PAYMENT & RECEIPTS:

The system accepts only credit/debit for Visa or MasterCard. No cash, checks or money orders are accepted. After successful completion of your renewal session, you may download a receipt to verify your successful renewal.

CEU AUDITS:

When you log into the system, you will be notified if you have been selected for a CEU audit. If so, you MUST MAIL legible hard copies (retain your originals) of BOTH the completed online application and your CEU course completion certificates to the Board for approval before your license or registration can be issued. Mail these documents to: MD Board of Chiropractic & Massage Therapy Examiners, Suite 301, 4201 Patterson Ave., Baltimore, MD 21215-2299, Attention, Ms. Adrienne Congo, Deputy Director.

TAX DELINQUENCY AUDITS:

If you have been flagged by the MD State Office of Comptroller for state tax or child support delinquencies, you will be notified by the Board and will not be allowed to complete renewal unless/until you satisfy the delinquency with the Comptroller. The Board has no authority to make any exceptions. All steps to satisfy the delinquency must be done directly and exclusively with the Comptroller. You may not practice without a license/registration and will not have one issued unless/until the Office of Comptroller clears you from its delinquent list.

*Note, this fee is mandated by state law and assessed on all licensees, including LMTs and Chiropractors and all other MD licensed healthcare practitioners such as MDs, RNs, PTs, etc. The fee is charged to fund state analyses and studies of healthcare access and methods of improving patient/client access.
