Hi Ron. I work for the VA Medical Center in Miami, and I can tell you about the federal system. As OT's, we must have an OTR/L designation. You must meet the NBCOT requirements and pass the test to get the R. The only difference is that the license you have may be from a state other than the one in which you are practicing. I can tell you that all the OT's I know here have OTR/L with the license in Florida. I do know some PT's here, however, with licenses from other states.
