License Deadline Extended!
If you had not heard, the Florida Surgeon General has extended the 2021 license renewal deadline, for medical professionals, for an additional three months to June 30, 2021. Hopefully, most if not all FAFP members who are due to renew have already done so but those who have not were given a little breathing room. Please do not hesitate to contact the FAFP if you have any questions or need assistance with CME reporting ([email protected]).
