What should the physician assistant do if their license has been canceled due to non-renewal?

File for a waiver
Start a new license application process
Practice without a license
Wait for automatic reinstatement

The correct answer is: Start a new license application process

When a physician assistant's license has been canceled due to non-renewal, the appropriate course of action is to start a new license application process. This is because a cancellation due to non-renewal indicates that the individual is no longer legally authorized to practice. The licensure regulations often require that in such situations, the individual must go through the complete licensing process again, which may include submitting an application, providing necessary documents, and possibly retaking examinations to demonstrate their qualifications and readiness to practice. The option to file for a waiver does not apply in this situation since a cancellation requires a new application rather than a request for an exception. Practicing without a license is against legal and ethical standards and can lead to serious repercussions, including legal penalties and professional disciplinary actions. Waiting for automatic reinstatement is not a viable option in most states, including Texas, as licenses that have been canceled typically do not have provisions for automatic reinstatement without following the proper reapplication procedures. Thus, initiating the new license application process is the correct and necessary action to regain licensure.
