Indiana Opioid CME Requirement

Each of Dr. Arbuck's presentations count toward meeting Indiana’s requirement that all licensed physicians applying for or renewing a Controlled Substances Registration (CSR) must have completed two hours of CME on opioid prescribing and abuse in the previous two years.

If you are a licensed physician making your initial application for a CSR, you will need to submit your certificates of completion for the required two hours of opioid CME to the Medical Licensing Board (MLB) with your application.

If you are a licensed physician renewing a CSR, you will be asked to attest on your CSR renewal application that you have completed the two hours of CME. You do not need to submit certificates of completion to the MLB with your renewal application. Instead, the MLB may audit up to 10% of licensees to ensure compliance, so be sure to retain certificates of completion. The MLB recommends keeping certificates for three years from your CSR expiration date.
