Skip to content Credex Healthcare focuses on helping physicians and other health care workers get licenses to work in Michigan. The Great Lakes State is home to many beautiful lakes. Our knowledge of how to get a license as a healthcare provider in Michigan ensures that your application meets all the rules and speeds up the whole process. We know that getting a license in Michigan means figuring out how to use the Michigan Board of Medicine, the Michigan medical board documents checklist, and the state’s complicated regulatory system for paperwork.
It’s simple to understand and pay a single fee for our services to maintain your Michigan medical license or apply for your first Michigan medical license. A doctor who is already working must pay $750 per state application. A physician in training must pay $550 per state application. This all-inclusive fee covers the whole process of applying for a medical license in Michigan, from the first meeting to sending your application to the Michigan Board of Medicine.
Our Michigan medical licensing services help you get your application ready, work with FCVS, meet the document checklist requirements set by the Michigan Medical Board, handle background check requirements, support your Michigan Controlled Substances License (CSL), help you register for Michigan MAPS, and talk to the Michigan Board of Medicine, LARA, and other important people.
The Federation Credentials Verification Service (FCVS) is an important part of getting a medical license in Michigan. All doctors who want to get licensed in Michigan through the Michigan Board of Medicine must get their FCVS verified. In Michigan, the FCVS process includes checking your medical schooling, training, test scores, and work experience through a national licensing network.
Our team works directly with FCVS to set up and keep your picture of credentials at the top level. We handle all contacts with FCVS for you, which cuts down on wait times and makes sure that your credentials are checked smoothly as you apply for a Michigan medical license. The FCVS profile is very important for keeping Michigan medical license delays from happening because of verifying credentials.
To administer controlled substances in Michigan, you need more than just a doctor’s license. You also need a Michigan Controlled Substances License (CSL). For federal prescription power, you will also need a registration with the DEA Detroit Field Division and a registration with the Michigan Automated Prescription System (MAPS).

The Michigan MAPS licensing process is just as important, and it works with your CSL to give you full ordering power and make sure that medication tracking rules are followed.
In Michigan, you need three different licenses in order to fully prescribe drugs: a DEA Detroit Field Division registration, a Michigan Controlled Substances License (CSL), and a Michigan MAPS registration. We handle all three applications at the same time as your medical license application to make sure that your practice can start running at full capacity as soon as you get your license.
Getting a medical license in Michigan through our service usually takes between 2 and 4 months, from the time you send in your application to the time you get your license.
