On June 27, 2023, the Medication Access and Treatment Expansion (MATE) Act formally went into effect. This new Federal Law established by the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2023, mandates that anyone, other than a veterinarian, under state law licensed to prescribe controlled substances and/or who holds a DEA license – including physicians, dentists, chiropractors, podiatrists, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants – must complete a one-time eight-hour course on the treatment and management of patients with opioid or other substance use disorders and the safe pharmacological management of pain. Applicants are required to affirm they have completed 8 hours of education that meets criteria established by the new MATE Act. If the applicant cannot affirm they have completed the educational requirement, the applicant will not be able to complete the application process. This applies to new license applications and renewals. More details and links are found on the Resources tab of this website.
