This 8-hour online course provides the essential training for healthcare providers to diagnose and manage patients with opioid and other substance use disorders.

It will allow you to renew a DEA license.
PLEASE NOTE: The content from the Online CME: Opioid Prescribing and Pain Management course is included in this course. You can still purchase and complete that course and receive an additional 2 hours of credit - but there will not be any new content presented.
