This training will count towards the DEA’s 8-hour training requirement when applying for or renewing your DEA license.

Section 1262 of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023 (also known as Omnibus bill), removes the federal requirement for practitioners to submit a Notice of Intent and obtain a waiver to your DEA license to prescribe schedule III-V medications, approved by the FDA for the treatment of opioid use disorder (OUD).

The Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2023 enacted a new one-time, eight-hour training requirement for all Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA)-registered practitioners on the treatment and management of patients with opioid or other substance use disorders.

Beginning on June 27, 2023, practitioners will be required to check a box on their online DEA registration form, affirming that they have completed the new training requirement.
