Notes. IDAPA 24.34.01 section 100.11 (3-28-23 text, board of nursing): the APRN license renews every two years on three conditions, a current RN license, evidence of current national APRN certification, and participation in a peer review process acceptable to the Board. The rule sets no continuing-education hour count and no pharmacology hours. Hours recorded as 0 means the rule imposes none, not that the value is unknown.

Notes. IDAPA 24.33.02 (Board of Medicine PA rules, version effective 7-1-25): before renewal a PA attests to current NCCPA certification or a similar board-approved certification. The 100 hours per two years is the NCCPA maintenance standard and is not stated in the state rule. An AAPA state summary also lists 2 hours of child abuse recognition and reporting education; that was not found in the rule text.

Notes. Secondary source; confirm with the board. The CU Anschutz AA program list (states where AAs work by license, regulation or certification, or by physician delegation) and the BYU 2023 list of authorized states do not include Idaho, so no state licensure for anesthesiologist assistants was found. Not read on a board or statute page.

Nurse practitioners, physician assistants, nurse anesthetists and anesthesiologist assistants usually also maintain national certification, which has its own cycle. The recertification basics guide explains how that fits alongside state rules.
