Montana Physician CE audits & penalties

What happens if a physician (md/do) misses CE requirements in Montana, and how the board checks compliance — sourced from the official board.

Montana requires no physician CME, so there are no CME audit penalties. The first 45 days after expiration are a 'lapsed' window in which practice may continue; after that the license is expired and practice is prohibited, and after two years the license terminates. Renewal after expiration incurs a 100% late fee.Verify with board

How compliance is checked

No audit process appears in the available data. Keep your certificates regardless — boards can request proof of completion at renewal or during an investigation.
