(a) The board may waive the examination or education requirements, or both, and grant licensure (1) to any applicant who presents proof of current authorization to practice naturopathy in another state, the District of Columbia or territory of the United States which requires standards for authorization to practice determined by the board to be equivalent to the requirements for licensure under this act and (2) to any applicant who presents proof that on the day preceding the effective date of this act that the applicant was practicing under K.S.A. 65-2872a and amendments thereto.

(b) At the time of making an application under this section, the applicant shall pay to the board the application fee as required under K.S.A. 65-7207 and amendments thereto.

(c) The board may issue a temporary license to an applicant for licensure as a naturopathic doctor who applies for temporary licensure on a form provided by the board, who meets the requirements for licensure or who meets all the requirements for licensure except examination and who pays to the board the temporary license fee as required under K.S.A. 65-7207 and amendments thereto. The person who holds a temporary license shall practice only under the supervision of a licensed naturopathic doctor. Such temporary license shall expire one year from the date of issue or on the date that the board approves the application for licensure, whichever occurs first. No more than one such temporary license shall be permitted to any one person.
