Treat all of that as a lead, not proof. For Florida, verification should trace back to the official Department of Health portal, with the Florida Board of Medicine site useful mainly for context and navigation.<\/p>\n<p>One detail worth knowing before you search: Florida splits physician licensing by degree type. MDs are licensed through the Board of Medicine, while DOs fall under the Board of Osteopathic Medicine. Searching the wrong board is a common reason recruiters get a &#8220;no results&#8221; response and assume the license doesn&#8217;t exist.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Verify on the official portal.<\/strong> Use the FL DOH lookup as your record of truth, not a third-party aggregator.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Record fields plus the source link.<\/strong> A pasted status isn&#8217;t auditable; a source URL and timestamp are.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Re-check at milestones.<\/strong> Status can change between your first search and start date \u2014 don&#8217;t rely on one early check.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step-by-step_method\"><\/span>Step-by-step method<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Open the official Florida license lookup portal.<\/strong>\n<p>Start on the Florida Department of Health portal and search by license number when you have it. If not, search by last name and narrow carefully, confirming the correct board (Medicine vs. Osteopathic Medicine) for the credential type you&#8217;re checking.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Official portal: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flhealthsource.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Florida HealthSource (FL DOH) license lookup<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Board site (context\/navigation): <a href=\"https:\/\/flboardofmedicine.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Florida Board of Medicine<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Confirm you have the right physician.<\/strong>\n<p>Don&#8217;t assume the first result is correct. Confirm the match with at least two identifiers \u2014 full name plus city\/address on the record, or full name plus license number. If the name is common, open each candidate record until you can confirm the right person.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Capture the verification fields.<\/strong>\n<p>At minimum, record:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Physician full name (as shown on the record)<\/li>\n<li>License type (confirm it&#8217;s the physician license you need)<\/li>\n<li>License number<\/li>\n<li><strong>Status<\/strong> (exact text as displayed)<\/li>\n<li>Issue date and expiration date, if shown<\/li>\n<li>Discipline section: record &#8220;section present\/section not present&#8221; only, and route to credentialing \u2014 don&#8217;t interpret it yourself<\/li>\n<li>Source URL and a timestamp of when you checked<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Use a consistent status definition.<\/strong>\n<p>Treat &#8220;status&#8221; as the current standing displayed by the official Florida record at the time you checked \u2014 nothing more. In a recruiting workflow, that becomes a go\/no-go flag for proceeding to submission, with a re-check scheduled close to start date. Checking once and moving fast is tempting; re-checking at submittal, offer, and pre-start catches the status changes that cause late-stage delays.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Log it so anyone can re-verify in under a minute.<\/strong>\n<p>Store the license number, exact status text, and source link in your ATS\/CRM. Add a task for the next re-check \u2014 before interview scheduling or before offer, depending on how long the search runs.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>Match NPI to license after the official check, not before.<\/strong>\n<p>Once the Florida record is confirmed, cross-matching identifiers reduces duplicates and misroutes downstream.
