TRENDING TOPICS
DPS provides updates on Controlled Substances
Registration (CSR) renewals; synchronization
to begin soon
HB 1803 passed last session;
went into effect Jan. 1
By Mary E. Nava, MBA
Chief Governmental and Community Relations Officer
The successful passage of HB 1803
during the 83rd Legislative Session (and as I like to describe it,
the BCMS resolution that became law), allows for moving the CSR to
a two-year permit, synchronizing it with the medical license
renewal, and provides online renewal capabilities with the TMB. A
portion of the law indicates that a CSR in effect on Jan. 1, 2014,
is automatically extended until the physician's next license
renewal date, thus allowing for completion of the synchronization
over a two-year time period.
To read more about these updates,

For local discussion on this and other legislative
advocacy topics, consider joining the BCMS Legislative and
Socioeconomics Committee by contacting
Mary
Nava.
