Oregon is not a member of the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact
Summary
The Oregon Medical Board confirms that Oregon has not joined the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact or other physician licensure compacts. Out-of-state physicians generally must obtain full Oregon licensure to treat patients located in Oregon, with only narrow telemedicine exemptions for established patients.
The Oregon Medical Board states that Oregon has not joined the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact or other licensure compacts. While Oregon offers an expedited endorsement process and limited telemedicine exemptions for out-of-state physicians treating established Oregon patients, there is no compact-based expedited multistate pathway. This creates a cross-state licensing barrier for physicians who want to provide telehealth to new Oregon patients.
