Why the evaluation isn’t free

Ohio’s registration is free, but the law only lets a physician with a Certificate to Recommend sign you up, and only after a real exam. Your fee pays for that physician’s time, the checks Ohio requires, and a refund if they find you don’t qualify.

Refunds

Full refund of the evaluation fee if the physician finds you do not qualify. No deductions, no no-show fee. Read the refund policy.
