The New MATE Act from the DEA - The GDA Has You Covered
The Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) has passed a new law requiring all medical practitioners that have a DEA license to get 8 hours of continuing education in opioids. This requirement begins June 27, 2023. See more on this in the FAQ section below.
The GDA recently hosted a 4-part webinar series to help GDA members meet this new requirement. Those recordings are now available 24/7 to watch on-demand. Purchase the entire series or sessions a la carte.
