How Michigan Physical Therapist Assistant license verification works

A Physical Therapist Assistant in Michigan is licensed by the MI Physical Therapy Board. PrimaryCheck looks the license up live at the board's public verification system (board lookup) by license number, or by name when no number is supplied. The record the board publishes is captured as evidence, hashed, and rendered into a proof PDF.

Fields returned for this board: name license_number license_type status issued expires county disciplinary_actions related_records.

Board note: Accela Citizen Access (MiPLUS), same connector as MI nursing; licence types mapped per profession in verify/connectors/mi_lara/connector.py

What a Physical Therapist Assistant license check returns

Field check	Passes when
`license_number`	Equal to the board's number, ignoring prefix and leading zeros
`name`	Last name or declared alias matches; first name exact or nickname
`license_type`	The record is a Physical Therapist Assistant license, strictly (no near-miss types)
`status`	The board shows an active status; probation is active with a flag
`expires`	Expiration is on or after today, where the board publishes it
`disciplinary_actions`	Recorded and flagged with any order documents; never silently dropped

Verdicts: verified, discrepancy, not_found, unable_to_verify (with a reason), pending. See how verdicts are decided.

PT Compact and multistate Physical Therapist Assistant licenses

Physical Therapist Assistant licenses can carry a multistate privilege under the PT Compact. When the Michigan record shows a multistate license, the result includes multistate: true and the privilege states. Privilege status is confirmed at the compact's own lookup, never inferred.
