What is the result of license suspension?

• A. It permits practice again after suspension period
• B. Permanent end of license
• C. Temporary prohibition with no chance of reinstatement
• D. Cancel current license and require reapplication

Answer: (A)

License suspension is a temporary removal of the right to practice, with the expectation that the license can be restored after the suspension period once conditions are met. It is designed to pause practice as a penalty while allowing reinstatement later. This is different from a permanent end of licensure (that would be revocation or cancellation) and from a prohibition with no chance of reinstatement. It’s also not a complete cancelation requiring a full reapplication from scratch; rather, the licenseholder can resume practice after the suspension and any required steps are completed.
