How to renew your GXMO license in Ohio: The Ohio Dept. of Health (ODH) requires a minimum of 12 continuing education credits (ceus) to be completed every 2 years (your biennium) BEFORE your license expires. You may do more than 12 ceus, but not less than 12 ceus, if you so choose. Ceus in excess of 12 cannot be carried over to the next biennium. You will receive a hard copy renewal notice by mail from the ODH 60 days BEFORE your license expires. It is your responsibility to amend your personal information to the ODH whenever you change your name, address or place of employment as soon as possible by using the ODH website or contacting the ODH by telephone at 614 752-4319 for assistance. Failure to receive an ODH notice is not an acceptable reason for failing to renew on time. You can add completion of clinical modules to your GXMO license on the ODH web site. Your ODH notice informs you that you may renew online or request a hard copy form from them. You must have your S.T.A.R.S. certificate(s) of completion immediately available when you renew since your course title(s), number of ceus, and ODH accreditation number(s) and date(s) of completion are printed on it. You can renew immediately when you receive your notice or you have 30 days to complete the renewal process and payment to the ODH after your license expires. Online renewal requires your credit card for payment. If you chose hard copy renewal, you may submit a check or money order. You and/or your employer can view your renewed license on line upon completion of the process. Problems that exist with renewal should be addressed to the ODH by calling for assistance. S.T.A.R.S. personnel are NOT responsible for your renewal. Please direct any questions or needed assistance with renewal to the ODH personnel. You may also want to check the ODH web site periodically for changes that may have occurred during your biennium. GXMOs must notify the ODH in writing within 30 days of any changes in the physician providing direct supervision. If your scope of practice changes (e.g. chiropractic to podiatric), a competency form must be completed and submitted to the ODH.
