Yes, most Patient Certifications do expire. Patient certifications usually expire one year from the date the doctor signs them. However, many practitioners may specify an earlier expiration date. Pay close attention to the expiration date on your patient certification. If a patient is terminally ill (as certified by their practitioner), the certification does not expire.

After the patient certification has expired, the patient is required to obtain a new patient certification from their practitioner. If a registered patient renews his or her patient certification and application before their card expires, the card would not expire but would instead be linked to the new patient certification form.
