application and pay the appropriate application fee in accordance with Section
401.130.
b) The Agency shall issue and recognize the
following types of accreditation:
1) Active
Status Accreditation for persons who have passed an examination as indicated in
Section
401.70(b).
A) A Radiologist Assistant shall also submit
a letter of agreement/delegation from a radiologist certified by the American

2) Temporary
accreditation for persons who have completed an approved program in medical
radiography, nuclear medicine technology or radiation therapy technology and
are eligible for the examination specified in Section
401.70(b).
Temporary Accreditation shall convey the same rights as the Active Status
Accreditation for which the individual is awaiting examination.
3) Conditional Accreditation Type I for

community hardship exists. When making a determination of the existence of
community hardship, the Agency will consult with State, county or local health

c) All persons who have received
accreditation from the Agency shall notify the Agency of any permanent or
temporary change in their designated mailing address and of any change in name
within 30 days after that change. Failure of the accredited individual to
notify the Agency of any change shall not be considered a valid cause for
delaying any subsequent administrative proceeding involving the particular
accredited individual nor excuse the accredited individual from complying with
any other legal obligations from the laws and rules administered by the
Agency.
d) The duration of issuance
of Active Status, Temporary, Conditional Type I, Conditional Type II or Limited
Diagnostic Radiography Accreditation shall be 2 years. Temporary accreditation
