ACP resources can help fulfill new DEA training requirement on substance use disorders

Starting June 27, 2023, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) will require registered physicians to provide a one-time attestation that they have completed eight hours of training, and ACP's education resources can help.


Beginning on June 27, 2023, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) will enforce a new mandatory requirement for DEA-registered physicians and other health care practitioners to provide a one-time attestation that they have completed eight hours of training on the management of patients with opioid or other substance use disorders. Practitioners must complete this mandatory training before applying for or renewing their DEA registration.

As an Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education-accredited CME provider with Commendation, ACP offers a wide variety of activities that count toward this new requirement. Choose from a curated list at ACP's Substance Use Disorder Hub.
