Relates to the training requirements for prescribers of certain pain medications

This bill requires prescribers of certain pain medications to complete updated training focused on safe prescribing practices. The training must cover pain management, addiction prevention, overdose reduction techniques, and buprenorphine prescribing, with new requirements applying to license renewals after July 1, 2026. The Health Department must establish and publish standards for approved training courses in consultation with education and addiction services agencies. These changes aim to integrate addiction treatment knowledge into routine pain management training for prescribers.
