FAQs – General Following are some of the more common questions we get on the phone on an almost daily basis. If you have a question that hasn’t been answered in any of our other FAQ formats, this one may be helpful: What is “Endorsement” and/or “Reciprocity?” What is a Provisional License? Is it the same thing as a Temporary License? I’m an administrator…How many CEUs am I required to get? Does my MAT training count? When are licenses renewed in Oklahoma? What’s the renewal fee? Does this training I’m attending next week count for my CEUs? OR I attended a seminar in Kansas (or somewhere else)…does that count for my CE? Who’s the best person for me to talk with about my license? What’s the address to have my transcript mailed to? What are the different long term care administrator license types in Oklahoma? Which license should I apply for (which license am I qualified for)? I have been referred or reported to the Board…what’s going to happen? I’m ready for the NAB Exam…what do I do now? When is it scheduled? When does the next class start? What is “Endorsement” and/or “Reciprocity?” [BACK TO THE LIST OF FAQs] These two terms have been slung around so much that most people actually don’t know the difference any more. There IS a difference. There is actually no such thing as “reciprocity” concerning your long term care license. Reciprocity is when you have a license in one jurisdiction that the license is therefore recognized/accepted in other states. This would be like your drivers license…it’s good in Oklahoma, Texas, Maine, California, Florida…all over the United States. THAT is reciprocity and it simply does not exist for long term care administrators licenses (at this time). It’s a “puzzle” that has been worked on for over 40 years between the various states and still not solved. The alternative is licensure by endorsement… This means that when you come to OSBELTCA to get your license (and you already have one in another state), you must come to us having met our requirements (degree, certain amount of experience and time as an administrator in another state, completed an AIT program at least as rigorous as our program, passed the NAB NHA exam…see the qualifications in our rules) and all that essentially remains is that you apply, provide this information to us, pay the fees and ALSO to pass our State Standards Exam. So, your license from another state does not work here. You must get one from Oklahoma and that frequently entails a form from the other state be filled out by that state’s equivalent of OSBELTCA (may have a fee) to prove when you got your license and your NAB scores and that you don’t have any actions pending in that state and so on. Likewise, if you’re licensed in Oklahoma and are applying for another state, you’ll have to request our office to complete a licensure endorsement questionnaire as part of the process.
