(a) A provider may renew a license issued under AS 21.59.110 - 21.59.290 biennially on a date set by the director if the licensee continues to be qualified under AS 21.59.110 - 21.59.290 and, on or before the close of business of the renewal date, meets all renewal requirements established by regulation, and pays the renewal license fees set by the director. A licensee is responsible for knowing the date that a license will lapse and for renewing a license on or before that date. The director shall notify the licensee of the impending lapse 30 days before the lapse date. The director may not renew a license except in compliance with AS 21.59.110 - 21.59.290 and may not renew the license of a person, or to be exercised by a person, found by the director to be untrustworthy, incompetent, or financially irresponsible, or who has not established to the satisfaction of the director that the person is qualified under AS 21.59.110 - 21.59.290.
(b) If a provider's license is not renewed on or before the lapse date set by the director, the license lapses. A licensee may not act as or represent to be a provider during the time a license has lapsed. The director may reinstate a lapsed license if the person continues to qualify for the license and pays license renewal fees and a delayed renewal penalty. Reinstatement does not exempt a person from a penalty provided by law for transacting business while unlicensed. A license that has lapsed for two years or longer may not be renewed.
