Online License Renewal - System Failure

​​On November 20, 2023, the Health Licensing Office (HLO) was made aware of a system failure by the third-party company that processes online renewals for our license holders. The persons affected are license holders who renewed their license online on or after November 17, 2023. The outcome of the system failure resulted in the HLO licensing database not receiving updates to reflect that the license was renewed, and therefore licenses were not printed or mailed out. 

If you renewed your Respiratory Therapist or Polysomnographic Technologist license on or after November 17, 2023, and the HLO licensing database is not reflecting so, please send a copy or picture of the online payment and the confirmation number to Michael Brennan at: michael.a.brennan@oha.oregon.gov

If you renewed your Dietitians license on or after November 17, 2023, and the HLO licensing database is not reflecting so, please send a copy or picture of the online payment and the confirmation number to Kyle Bivens at: kyle.bivens@oha.oregon.gov.
