§ 17.8. Licenses, certificates and registrations issued prior to January 1, 1986.
(a) A license, certificate and registration issued prior to January 1, 1986, shall continue in full force and effect for the duration of the license, certificate or registration as provided for in the now repealed Medical Practice Act of 1974 (formerly 63 P. S. § § 421.1—421.18) and the provisions of this chapter in effect prior to January 3, 1987.
(b) Licenses and certificates which the Board has no authority to issue under the act, but which were previously issued by the Board under authority contained in the Medical Practice Act of 1974, are:
(1) Limited license (permanent).
(2) Limited license (temporary).
(3) Across-the-border license.
(4) Temporary license to participate in graduate medical training.
(5) Graduate certificate.
(6) Short-term camp physician license.
(c) An across-the-border license is identical to the extraterritorial license the Board is authorized to issue under the act. Rights and responsibilities imposed by the act, this chapter and Chapters 16 and 18 (relating to State Board of Medicine—general provisions; and State Board of Medicine—practitioners other than medical doctors) on and after January 3, 1987 on the holder of an extraterritorial license also apply to a holder of an across-the-border license.
(d) Limited licenses—permanent—are subject to biennial registration requirements specified in § § 16.13 and 16.15 (relating to licensure, certification, examination and registration fees; and biennial registration; inactive status and unregistered status).
(e) A person who holds either a temporary license or a graduate certificate to participate in graduate medical training, and who wishes to continue participation in graduate medical training after his license or certificate expires, shall meet the qualifications for a graduate license.
(f) A person who holds a limited license—temporary—who wishes to continue the teaching and practice privileges authorized by that license after that license expires, shall meet the qualifications for an institutional license.
