contained in the application, an applicant for a license to practice as a physician

assistant is eligible therefor under subsections

(1)and

(2)of KRS 311.844, the

executive director may issue to the applicant, on behalf of the board, a temporary

license which shall entitle the holder to practice as a physician assistant for a

maximum of six

(6)months from the date of issuance unless the temporary license

is canceled by the executive director, who may cancel it at any time, without a

hearing, for reasons deemed sufficient with appropriate consultation with the

president, and who shall cancel it immediately upon direction by the board or upon

the board's denial of the holder's application for a regular license. The temporary

license shall not be renewable.

(2)The executive director shall present to the board the application for licensure made

by the holder of the temporary license. If the board issues a regular license to the

notify, by United States certified mail, the holder of the temporary license at the last

known address on file with the board. The temporary license shall be terminated

and of no further force or effect three
