How Missouri Physical Therapist Assistant license verification works

A Physical Therapist Assistant in Missouri is licensed by the MO 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.
