Important note about new DEA training requirements
In late December 2022, the DEA was required to implement a new Substance Use Disorder (SUD) training requirement for all DEA-registered providers; this has replaced the previous X-DEA waiver for buprenorphine prescribing for opioid use disorder.
Per the DEA letter, programs that teach “treatment and management of patients with opioid or other substance use disorders” will fulfill this requirement.
It is our assessment that most of Oregon’s Addiction Medicine ECHO Programs meet all the training requirements towards the 8 hours needed.
