When the Board determines that a license, certificate or registration issued by another state, political territory, or jurisdiction to a respiratory care practitioner was issued upon satisfaction of substantially the same requirements for licensure required by the North Carolina Respiratory Care Practice Act, the Board may issue a license to that respiratory care practitioner upon receipt of the online application in accordance with 21 NCAC 61 .0201 and the fees in accordance with 21 NCAC 61 .0204 if that issued license has been active for at least one year. A license issued under this rule is exempt from the requirements of 21 NCAC 61 .0401 provided the individual remains licensed in their home state of record.
