Course Description:
​
The Medication Access and Training Expansion (MATE) Act requires all DEA-registered providers to complete this training. Prescribers of controlled substances, including dentists, can satisfy this requirement by completing eight hours of one-time training on safely prescribing controlled substances.
This training requirement must be completed before the practitioner’s next DEA registration submission (initial registration or renewal).
​
This 6-hour course plus the Maryland State Board of Dental Examiners 2-hour Proper Pharmacologic Prescribing and Disposal for Dental Practitioners course (required every other renewal cycle, whether you prescribe or not) equals the 8-hour DEA requirement to obtain or renew DEA registration.
