License Reinstatement Fees

Under Mississippi Code §73-25-14, a physician, osteopath, podiatrist, or physician assistant whose license has lapsed must pay back fees for up to the previous five renewal years, plus the current year’s renewal fee, before the license can be reinstated.

The application fee is $250.00 and is non-refundable. The $250.00 application fee is credited toward the total amount due once the application is approved.

How Arrearages Are Calculated

For each lapsed year, the applicant owes:

Charge Amount
Annual renewal fee $300.00
Late penalty (per year) $25.00
Monthly delinquency fee (per month past due) $5.00

A full year that went unrenewed totals $385.00 ($300 annual renewal + $25 late penalty + $60 for twelve months of delinquency fees).

Worked Example

Suppose a licensee’s license lapsed on July 1, 2021 (they failed to renew for the 2021–2022 renewal year). They submit a reinstatement application on April 1, 2026, partway through the 2025–2026 renewal year. Their back fees would cover the four prior full lapsed years plus the partial current year:

Renewal Year Time Period Delinquent Months Calculation Year Total
2021–2022 July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2022 12 $300 + $25 + ($5 × 12) $385
2022–2023 July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023 12 $300 + $25 + ($5 × 12) $385
2023–2024 July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024 12 $300 + $25 + ($5 × 12) $385
2024–2025 July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2025 12 $300 + $25 + ($5 × 12) $385
2025–2026 July 1, 2025 to April 1, 2026 9 $300 + $25 + ($5 × 9) $370
Subtotal $1,910
Less $250.00 application fee −$250
