What is the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact?
Simplifying the licensing process for clinicians.
The IMLC is an agreement between multiple U.S. states and territories, providing an expedited pathway for physicians to obtain licenses to practice in multiple states. Overseen by the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact Commission, the IMLC helps participating state boards streamline the licensing process while maintaining high standards of patient care.
It’s important to note that the IMLC doesn’t issue a universal license for physicians to practice in all participating states. Here’s how the process works.
