Controlled Substance Dispensing Practitioner Registration Renewal For Medical Doctors Whose Last Names Begin With The Letters A Through L

Effective at 11:59 pm Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) on June 30, 2024, all controlled substance dispensing practitioner registrations issued to medical doctors whose last names begin with the letters A through L will expire unless successfully renewed prior to 4:30 pm EDT on Friday, June 28, 2024. The Board strongly encourages early renewal to avoid unexpected problems or delays in renewal completion. 

As a reminder, a controlled substance dispensing practitioner registration is only required if the physician administers and/or dispenses controlled substances in an office-based practice. It is not required for (1) inpatient hospital practice; or (2) to write prescriptions which are to be dispensed by a pharmacy. Physicians who will not be administering and/or dispensing controlled substances in an office-based setting after June 30, 2024 do not need to take any action and his/her registration will simply expire.
