Nevada Healthcare Consulting

Nevada Medical License & Board of Medical Examiners Help

We prepare and track Nevada State Board of Medical Examiners (NSBME) and Nevada State Board of Osteopathic Medicine applications for MDs, DOs, PAs, and allied health — plus IMLC, credentialing, and clinic licensing statewide.

Flat-fee pricing in Nevada

One published flat fee, confirmed in writing before any work starts. Board, FCVS, verification, fingerprint, and exam fees are paid directly to those agencies and are never marked up by us.

$899

Standard physician licensure

A clean record with nothing to explain to the board.

  • Full application prepared and submitted-ready for one state and one license type
  • FCVS, primary-source verifications, and credentialing paperwork coordinated
  • Every board deficiency-response package prepared until the file is complete
  • Status tracking and follow-up with the board through to issuance

$1,497

Licensure with a history to explain

Any prior discipline, malpractice suit, settlement, investigation, board inquiry, hospital action, or unresolved question on your record — whether or not discipline was ever entered.

  • Everything in the standard engagement
  • Written explanation and disclosure package for each reportable event
  • Supporting records assembled: court, settlement, hospital, and prior-board documents
  • Prepared responses for board follow-up questions and interview preparation

What counts as "a history to explain"

Discipline does not have to have been entered. If any of these appear anywhere in your record, the application requires disclosure work and is priced at the higher flat fee:

  • Any board discipline, consent order, reprimand, probation, or fine
  • A malpractice lawsuit — filed, settled, dismissed, or pending
  • A malpractice settlement or judgment, at any amount
  • An open or closed board investigation or complaint
  • A hospital privileging denial, restriction, resignation, or non-renewal
  • A prior license denial, withdrawal, lapse, or non-renewal in any state
  • Any criminal charge, DUI, or diversion program
  • A National Practitioner Data Bank report of any kind

Choose the correct fee

Clean record or a history that must be explained?

The price is based on the work your record requires—not on whether a prior event ultimately became formal discipline. Disclose it at intake so the application and source records stay consistent.

$899 — clean record

For one state and one license type when there is no adverse history or reportable event to explain. We prepare the application, organize the supporting record, coordinate the checklist, and track the file after you submit it.

$1,497 — history to explain

This applies when any event needs disclosure or explanation—even if no discipline was entered, a case was dismissed, or an investigation closed without action.

  • Any board discipline, consent order, reprimand, probation, or fine
  • A malpractice lawsuit — filed, settled, dismissed, or pending
  • A malpractice settlement or judgment, at any amount
  • An open or closed board investigation or complaint
  • A hospital privileging denial, restriction, resignation, or non-renewal
  • A prior license denial, withdrawal, lapse, or non-renewal in any state
  • Any criminal charge, DUI, or diversion program
  • A National Practitioner Data Bank report of any kind

What to gather before we start for Nevada

You do not need every document in hand before contacting us. This list lets us identify missing records early, before they hold up board review.

  • Government-issued identification and current contact information
  • Medical school, graduation date, degree, and ECFMG details if applicable
  • Every internship, residency, fellowship, and postgraduate training program
  • Every current, inactive, expired, or surrendered professional license
  • USMLE or COMLEX history and an existing FCVS profile, if you have one
  • A complete work and activity history, including explanations for gaps
  • Malpractice carrier and claim history, including dismissed or settled matters
  • Every board letter, hospital action, investigation, court record, or NPDB report

What the board will evaluate

Requirements vary by profession and pathway. Common review areas include identity, education, examinations, postgraduate training, background history, and records from every prior board.

  • Degree from an LCME-accredited (MD) or AOA-accredited (DO) school, or a Board-recognized international program
  • USMLE or COMLEX — all three steps
  • ACGME or AOA postgraduate training verified directly by each program (additional years required for IMGs)
  • Primary-source verification from every state where you have ever held a license
  • Fingerprint-based criminal background check
  • Malpractice and disciplinary history disclosure with supporting records
  • Nevada-required continuing education, including ethics and controlled-substance topics
  • ECFMG certification for international medical graduates

What happens next—and what can delay a license

No consultant controls the board’s decision or calendar. Starting with a complete, consistent record reduces avoidable delays; third-party verification and individual board review still take time.

  1. 1. Scope and record review

    We identify the state, license type, required pathway, and whether your history needs additional disclosure documents.

  2. 2. Application preparation

    We organize your chronology, prepare the application and explanations, and give you a submission-ready package to review and sign.

  3. 3. Third-party verification

    Medical schools, training programs, examination services, prior boards, fingerprint vendors, and FCVS send records on their own schedules.

  4. 4. Board review and follow-up

    After you submit, we track the file and prepare your response package if the board identifies a missing item or asks for clarification.

Common reasons files stop moving

  • A training program or prior licensing board has not returned verification
  • Dates in the application do not match a CV, FCVS profile, or source record
  • An employment or training gap is missing a complete explanation
  • A lawsuit, settlement, investigation, hospital action, or license event was omitted
  • Fingerprints, examination scores, transcripts, or ECFMG records are still pending
  • The board placed the file on a committee or meeting agenda for individual review

Getting a NV medical license without the back-and-forth

Nevada splits physician licensure between two boards: MDs and physician assistants go to the Nevada State Board of Medical Examiners, DOs to the Nevada State Board of Osteopathic Medicine. Applicants routinely file with the wrong board, lose the fee, and start over.

We route the file to the correct board on day one, drive the verifications Nevada requires from every prior training program and licensing state, and — for physicians already licensed in a compact state — evaluate whether the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact is the faster path into Nevada before anything is filed.

Fees and timeline

Initial application
NSBME and the Osteopathic Board publish separate fee schedules — confirm the current amount with the board that governs your degree.
Fingerprint / background check
Paid to the fingerprint vendor and state repository, separate from the board fee.
Renewal
Nevada physician licenses renew on the board's published cycle with CE attestation.
IMLC pathway
Compact filings carry a separate SPL fee plus a Nevada issuance fee and are often faster than a standard application.

Board fees and timelines change. Always confirm current amounts on the board's official fee schedule. Our service fee is separate and covers preparation, verification coordination, and board follow-up.

Nevada board lookup & license verification

Who regulates what in Nevada, and where to verify a license. Filing with the wrong board — or verifying against the wrong registry — is one of the most common and most expensive mistakes in state licensure.

Nevada State Board of Medical Examiners (NSBME)

Allopathic physicians (MD), physician assistants, perfusionists, respiratory therapists, and practitioners of respiratory care.

NSBME license lookup

Nevada State Board of Osteopathic Medicine

Osteopathic physicians (DO) and the physician assistants they supervise.

Interstate Medical Licensure Compact — Nevada

Nevada participates in the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact. If your state of principal license is a compact member, the IMLC route into Nevada is usually materially faster than a standard application — we evaluate both before filing.

NV medical license FAQ

Which board issues Nevada medical licenses?

It depends on your degree. MDs and their physician assistants are licensed by the Nevada State Board of Medical Examiners; DOs and the PAs they supervise are licensed by the Nevada State Board of Osteopathic Medicine. Filing with the wrong board means losing the fee and restarting.

Does Nevada accept the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact?

Yes. Nevada participates in the IMLC. Physicians whose state of principal license is a compact member can typically reach a Nevada license faster through the compact than through a standard application. We evaluate both routes at intake.

How long does a Nevada medical license take?

A complete standard application generally moves in a matter of months, driven by how quickly training programs and prior licensing states respond. IMLC filings are usually faster. The boards control the calendar; we do not guarantee timing.

Does Nevada verify every state I have been licensed in?

Yes. Nevada requires verification from every jurisdiction where you have ever held a license, including inactive and expired ones. We identify and request all of them up front, since a single missing verification holds the entire file.

Can you handle Las Vegas MedSpa and clinic licensing too?

Yes. Alongside physician licensure we handle Nevada facility licensing through the Division of Public and Behavioral Health, business structure, and payer credentialing for new Las Vegas and Reno clinics.

Do you serve all of Nevada?

Yes — Las Vegas, Henderson, North Las Vegas, Reno, Summerlin, Sparks, Carson City, and statewide. All intake is remote.

Where is the Nevada medical board located and how do I contact it?

Nevada State Board of Medical Examiners — 9600 Gateway Drive, Reno, NV 89521. Phone (775) 688-2559, toll free (888) 890-8210. We are not the board; we prepare and track the file that goes to it.

How do I look up or verify a Nevada medical license?

Use the board's public license verification search at medboard.nv.gov (https://medboard.nv.gov/). Verification through the official registry is the only record employers, payers, and hospitals accept.

What does the Nevada board not handle?

Osteopathic physicians are licensed by the separate Nevada State Board of Osteopathic Medicine, nurses and APRNs by the Nevada State Board of Nursing, pharmacists by the State Board of Pharmacy, and facilities by the Division of Public and Behavioral Health.

Does the Nevada board handle complaints and discipline?

Yes. NSBME investigates complaints against physicians and physician assistants it licenses under NRS Chapter 630 and issues discipline, which becomes part of the public record. We prepare and reconcile disclosure history; we do not represent anyone before the board.
