Description
This course satisfies the Utah Division of Occupational and Professional Licensing (DOPL) mandate which states that “beginning with the licensing period that begins after January 1, 2014, as a condition precedent for license renewal, each controlled substance prescriber shall complete at least 3.5 continuing education hours per licensing period.” The 4 hours of the core curriculum is completely redesigned from the 2023-2024 version and continues to include educational content covering the following:
- the scope of the controlled substance abuse problem in Utah and the nation,
- all elements of the FDA Blueprint for Prescriber Education under the FDA’s Extended-Release and Long-Acting Opioid Analgesics Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy, as published July 9, 2012, or as it may be subsequently revised,
- the national and Utah-specific resources available to prescribers to assist in appropriate controlled substance and opioid prescribing,
- patient record documentation for controlled substance and opioid prescribing, and
- office policies, procedures, and implementation
- some training regarding medical cannabis, as that term is defined in Section 26B-4-201
Learners should consider completing all 4.0 hours of the core curriculum to satisfy the 3.5-hour minimum requirement. The electives are additional content that you may take for your own education since you will purchase the full 8.0 hours.
Updated electives are available for Pediatric Considerations for Opioid Prescribing, Preventing Opioid Overdose Death: Naloxone Rescue Kits, The Stages of Change: A Framework for Medical Providers, Eat, Sleep, Console: Neonatal Opioid Withdrawal Syndrome.
This current course satisfies at least 3.5 hours of continuing education for controlled substance prescribers, except dentists who shall complete at least 2 hours to satisfy the DOPL requirements. This controlled substance prescribing class satisfies the division’s requirements for the continuing education required for the renewal of the controlled substance prescriber’s respective license type, is delivered by an accredited continuing education provider recognized by the division as offering continuing education appropriate for the controlled substance prescriber’s respective license type, and include a post-course knowledge assessment.
In addition, an M.D. or D.O. completing continuing professional education hours will complete those hours in classes that qualify for the American Medical Association Physician’s Recognition Award Category 1 credit. All others (non-M.D. or D.O.s) could also seek continuing education credits in accordance with your organizations’ requirements.
