Section 4723.47. [Effective 3/23/2016] License suspension or revocation

(A) If a certified registered nurse anesthetist's, clinical nurse specialist's, certified nurse-midwife's, or certified nurse practitioner's license to practice nursing as a registered nurse lapses for failure to renew under section 4723.24 of the Revised Code, the nurse's certificate of authority to practice nursing as a certified registered nurse anesthetist, clinical nurse specialist, certified nurse-midwife, or certified nurse practitioner is lapsed until the license is reinstated. If the license is revoked under section 4723.28 or 4723.281 of the Revised Code, the nurse's certificate of authority is automatically revoked. If the license is suspended under either section, the nurse's certificate of authority is automatically suspended while the license remains suspended. If the license is classified as inactive under section 4723.24 of the Revised Code, the nurse's certificate of authority is automatically classified as inactive while the license remains inactive.

(B) If a clinical nurse specialist, certified nurse-midwife, or certified nurse practitioner holds a certificate to prescribe issued under section 4723.48 of the Revised Code and the nurse's certificate of authority to practice as a clinical nurse specialist, certified nurse-midwife, or certified nurse practitioner lapses for failure to renew under section 4723.41 of the Revised Code, the nurse's certificate to prescribe is lapsed until the certificate of authority is reinstated. If the certificate of authority becomes inactive in accordance with section 4723.42 of the Revised Code, the nurse's certificate to prescribe is lapsed until the certificate of authority becomes active. If the certificate of authority is revoked under section 4723.28 or 4723.281 of the Revised Code, the nurse's certificate to prescribe is automatically revoked. If the certificate of authority is suspended under either section, the nurse's certificate to prescribe is automatically suspended while the certificate of authority remains suspended. If a restriction is placed on the certificate of authority under section 4723.28 of the Revised Code, the same restriction is placed on the nurse's certificate to prescribe while the certificate of authority remains restricted.
