Marika Miller en Alexandra Maulden geciteerd over regels voor OUD-behandeling

Foley & Lardner LLP attorneys Marika Miller and Alexandra Maulden commented in the Fierce Healthcare article, “DEA, HHS delay effective date of virtual OUD prescribing rule to March.”

Writing in a Foley Health Care Law Today blog quoted in the article, the attorneys said, “If the COVID-era telemedicine prescribing flexibilities expire without further extension, the final rule offers protection for prescribing buprenorphine to treat OUD. However, that protection is contingent on establishing a legitimate special registration process, which the DEA has yet to propose or implement.”

“Given the uncertainty surrounding the incoming Trump administration’s priorities and its views on telemedicine prescribing of controlled substances, it is unclear whether the final rule will be withdrawn or left as-is,” they added.
