MBON Updates on Cyber Incident and Expiration Dates
Please see this important notice from the Maryland Board of Nursing for licensees and certificate holders with a December 28, 2021 or January 28, 2022 expiration date and for employers. Please be sure to read this notice in its entirety.
Main takeaways:
MBON can now process renewal applications submitted online and will process applications in the order in which they were received.
There may be some delays in the processing of online renewal applications mainly due to a backlog of online applications that accumulated as a result of the MDH cyber incident that occurred in December.
Licensees and certificate holders with an expiration date of December 28, 2021 or January 28, 2022 should submit a renewal application no later than 11:59 PM on February 19, 2022 in order to ensure that their license or certificate remains active until the Board is able to process their renewal application.
All renewal applicants should keep the electronic or paper receipt received from the Board nursing during the application process to prove that they submitted a renewal application.
