Alternatives & exemptions. The statutory definition of a physician assistant requires active certification by the NCCPA, so NCCPA certification (and its CME) must be maintained. No state hour count confirmed.
Good to know. Board PA rules (20 CSR 2150-7) on sos.mo.gov were blocked (Cloudflare) and not read, so any CE or renewal-cycle detail in them is unconfirmed. RSMo 334.738 says a license is valid for two years.
