SB1267 Is Now Law
On 6/21/2024, Governor Hobbs signed SB1267 and the bill is now law. A strike-through version of the bill is available for your review. The updated statutes are linked on the Statutes & Rules page.
Notable changes include:
* Physical Therapist Assistants will be licensed
* Physical Therapist and Physical Therapist Assistant Students, are are no longer included in the supervision ratio. (Onsite supervision of students is still required.)
* Physical Therapists may order imaging
Board forms and webpages are being systematically updated to reflect the statutory changes. Your patience through this process is greatly appreciated.
There will be an AZLAW Jurisprudence Exam blackout period between 10/10/2024 and 10/17/2024 to accommodate necessary exam updates.
Platform Migration
The Board has migrated to a new licensing and complaint platform.
*NEW* LICENSING PLATFORM LINK
EXISTING LICENSEES - Access the NEW Licensee Portal to login or reset password. Use the email address on file with the Board to access your account and license information. Failure to use your email address of record will prevent proper system functioning and could result in duplicate accounts.
Once logged into the Licensee Portal, review your profile pages and update as needed. This includes your Personal Information page and Employment Information page. Leave the end date blank for your current employer.
NEW APPLICANTS - Use the Licensing Platform Link above to access the Application Portal and follow the instructions to prepare and submit your application. If an application is shown in "Pending" status, click Cancel Application. You must start a fresh application to ensure proper submission. Likewise, if you see a previously "Withdrawn" application in your account, DO NOT resurrect that application, begin fresh instead.
CURRENT APPLICANTS - Third party documents, such as transcripts, may be emailed to [email protected]. If all of your deficient items have been received, your application is being processed, so watch your inbox and spam folders for communications from our staff.
Arizona license verification information is available, free of charge, on the public register. Use the "Find a PT or PTA" link above to perform a license/certificate search. If you require a verification sent directly from the Board, you may submit and pay for a Document Request through your Licensee Portal.
Name change requests may be submitted through your Licensee Portal.
Wallet cards are self-service and may be accessed through your Licensee Portal.
Some pieces of the new platform remain under construction at this time. Thank you for your continued patience as we work to troubleshoot any issues that may arise.
