- Once
- Who
- Every licensee
- Renewal cycle
- Renews every 2 years; licenses expire at June 30 of odd-numbered years, or the next business day if June 30 falls on a weekend or holiday (next: June 30, 2027).
- Board
- Nevada State Board of Medical Examiners
- The rule
- Confirm with your Board NAC 630.154 (still printed in the NAC as checked 2026-10-08): a course on the medical consequences of an act of terrorism involving a weapon of mass destruction, within 2 years of initial licensure (physicians licensed before October 1, 2003 had until September 30, 2005); AMA Category 1, in addition to the 40 hours. But the rule cites NRS 630.253, and the current NRS 630.253 (amended 2025) no longer contains a terrorism or weapons-of-mass-destruction course, and the Board's CME summary does not list it. It is likely obsolete; confirm with the Board before taking it. The rule sets no number of hours: 1 hour is a planning placeholder.
DO (osteopathic physician)
Medical consequences of terrorism involving weapons of mass destruction is not among the required topics in our Nevada DO requirement data. See the Nevada DO guide for what that license does require.
Facts marked “Confirm with your Board” are unsettled in the sources; the note says what to check.
