Hi dmcian,
As far as I know if u reschedule within ur eligiblity period then there could be two possible scenarios:
- u reschedule atleast 5 working days before ur test date. In that caseall u need is to call ur prometric centre over phone and get another date.
-u reschedule within LESS than 5 working days of ur test. U have to again call Prometric centre where u booked ur test , pay a small rescheduling fee and get ur test rescheduled.
I n both of the above cases there is no need of a new scheduling permit from ECFMG.
I hope this helps. U may want to refer to the link below to find out about rescheduling tests.

All the best

P.S: Here is the text from USMLE Bulletin about rerscheduling:
2005 USMLE BULLETIN
Applying for the Test and Scheduling Your Test Date
Rescheduling Test Dates
If you are unable to keep your testing appointment on the scheduled date(s) or at the scheduled location, you may change your date(s) or center by contacting Prometric. You will need to provide your Prometric Confirmation Number when you reschedule.
To avoid a rescheduling fee, you must request to reschedule your appointment at least five business days before your appointment. If you are testing in the United States or Canada, you must make your request by noon eastern time at least five business days before your appointment. If you are testing outside the United States or Canada, you must make your request by noon local time of the Regional Registration Center for your testing region at least five business days before your appointment.
When calling Prometric, you must speak with a representative. Leaving a voice mail message does not satisfy the requirement to provide advance notice. If you provide less than five business days' notice, Prometric will charge you a fee to reschedule your test date(s). Your rescheduled test date(s) must fall within your assigned eligibility period.
