Guide to Endorsement License Procedures for Ultrasound in Kansas

Before initiating the endorsement license procedure, it is crucial to have a clear understanding of the licensing requirements set by the Kansas State Board of Healing Arts (KSBHA). The KSBHA is the governing body responsible for regulating and licensing healthcare professionals in Kansas. To access detailed information about the requirements, please visit the KSBHA's official website: [KSBHA Official Website](https://www.ksbha.org/).

To successfully endorse your Ultrasound license to Kansas, you will need to gather the following documents:

- A completed and signed endorsement application form, which can be found on the [KSBHA Forms and Applications](https://www.ksbha.org/forms-and-applications) page.

- Proof of your current Ultrasound license from your home state or a Compact Agreement state.

- Verification of active practice in your home state or Compact Agreement state, which can be obtained from your previous or current employer.

- Official transcripts from your Ultrasound training program.

- Any additional documentation specific to your situation, as outlined by the KSBHA.

Once all the required documentation is gathered, you can proceed with submitting your endorsement application. Visit the [KSBHA Online License Renewal System](https://www.kansas.gov/ssr-lsbhb-renewal/), create an account, and follow the instructions to submit your application online. Please note that there may be application fees associated with the endorsement process, which will be specified on the KSBHA's website.

As part of the endorsement process, you will need to undergo a background check and provide your fingerprints. The KSBHA uses the services of multiple vendors for this process. To find the authorized vendors and schedule your background check and fingerprinting appointment, please visit the [KSBHA Background Check and Fingerprints](https://www.ksbha.org/background-check-fingerprints) page for more information.

The KSBHA requires verification of your education and licensure. They utilize third-party organizations for this purpose. You can find a list of approved organizations on the [KSBHA Approved Credentialing Organizations](https://www.ksbha.org/approved-credentialing-organizations) page. Select an organization from the list and follow their instructions to have your education and licensure verified and sent directly to the KSBHA.

The endorsement process may take some time, and it is essential to stay informed and maintain communication with the KSBHA. They will provide updates and notify you of any additional requirements or documentation needed. Regularly check your online account for notifications from the KSBHA and promptly respond to their requests to ensure a smooth endorsement procedure.
