Iowa SF469 creates an emeritus license for physicians and surgeons aged 60 or older, primarily supervising and training residents.

Iowa SF469 establishes an emeritus license for physicians and surgeons aged 60 or older who primarily supervise and train resident physicians. This license allows them to maintain their previous scope of practice without needing to complete continuing education credits. The license is valid for three years and can be renewed once. The application and renewal fees are half of the standard fees for a regular license. The board must adopt rules defining "primarily engaged in the practice of supervising and training resident physicians" and cannot issue these licenses before January 1, 2026.
