Special Requirements

In order to renew a prescriptive authority approval for the next renewal period, Section 9.1(a)(2) of ABC-MAP requires that all CRNPs with prescriptive authority approval complete at least two hours of continuing education in pain management, the identification of addiction or in the practices of prescribing or dispensing of opioids. The continuing education requirements of ABC-MAP will count towards the total number of hours of continuing education required for renewal. This two-hour requirement needs to be completed only once per renewal period regardless of the number of prescriptive authority approvals being renewed.  This continuing education must be taken from a Board-approved CRNP continuing education provider listed in Section 21.334 (a) of the Board’s regulations.  Completion of the opioid continuing education hours will have to be attested to on the renewal, but the documentation of completion will only have to be provided to the Board upon an audit request.
