If your DEA license is rejected, what can you do?

When a DEA license gets revoked or suspended or for some reason, you have surrendered your DEA license and require another immediately as without a license you will not be able to practice. What can you do for a DEA registration renewal or even in the case of a new DEA registration, what are the procedures that you are required to fulfil?

If your application has been rejected, you can appeal again to the DEA. DEA licenses are issued by the drug enforcement administration to health providers dealing with controlled substances. A license, therefore, is essential when you are prescribing controlled substance drugs to patients for various conditions to ensure that you are sticking to regulations and not practicing substance abuse. The application for applying or DEA registration renewal can be done online from the DEA registered website. The form can be filled online, filling the 224 forms after every three years for DEA registration renewal is mostly approved in three weeks to a month.

Before the renewal of registration, DEA investigates thoroughly to check if criminal records are attached with the DEA license number. If there is a slight trace of criminal activity, concerned with the physician dealing with controlled substances, an investigation audit is rolled out. Scrutiny in audits is made to spot errors, coding errors are minutely studied for irregularities in the facilities and offices that store controlled substances. If the physician dealing with controlled substances originates from a place or is working in an area that is known for substance abuse, then extra caution is taken to ensure that the license is not being mishandled.



Common issues that lead to DEA license suspension are:


Prescription falsification


If the physician has been caught selling controlled substances to those who do not require it medically, these diversions in controlled substances can lead to serious implications. If such a situation has been encountered, then DEA allows you to apply for a DEA new registration after a waiting period. In this period if you can address valid reasons to justify your act for license surrender and revoke, then DEA may renew it if they are convinced with your plea. You will need to honestly disclose the entire history of all the events that led to the revocation of the license. A complete statement should be prepared to explain the full matter to the DEA with an online application. You will be interviewed in detail by the DEA agents to ensure that what you have written is in coherence to what you speak. Your response therefore will largely affect your DEA registration renewal. These interviews will be recorded by the DEA; therefore, prior preparation is a must before facing the DEA agents.

Compliance Provisions for Hiring People with Access to Controlled Substances

It is not just the DEA registrant who is subject to strict regulations. The provisions also extend to staff members who will have access to the controlled substances. Those convicted for felony are barred forever. Everyone is well aware that the manufacture, distribution, administering and dispensing of controlled substances is subject to a bevy of federal, state and local regulations. The DEA controlled substance regulations itself are very exacting and the federal agency keeps strict tabs on all those entities who deal with such substances. The rules encompass even the hiring of staff who will administer, dispense or otherwise come in contact with the controlled substances. Indeed, healthcare providers and other entities are bound to carefully screen new employees and other staff members. However, they also have to run a criminal background check for those positions that will have access to controlled substances. Along with this, they should review the OIG (Office of the Inspector G...

Beware of Scammers Posing as DEA Agents

Scammers are impersonating DEA employees to defraud and extort DEA license holders through fake narratives of abusing controlled substances. People should be on their guard as the tactics are convincing. The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) maintains constant oversight over the supply and usage of scheduled drugs in the country. They enforce the DEA controlled substance regulations while keeping track of registered healthcare practitioners and pharmacists who prescribe, administer and dispense these drugs. Unscrupulous scamsters are using these regulations in innovative ways to swindle unsuspecting physicians and other DEA registrants. The scams have been taking place on and off since years and follow a similar format to a large extent. The fraudster usually calls the victim impersonating as a DEA agent. They may provide the name of a well-known DEA agent or use fake names and badge numbers. They may even quote the target’s Social Security Number or state license number while sta...

Changes Regarding DEA Application Regulations

Those applying for DEA registration and existing registrants have to keep abreast of the changes in the regulations to ensure that they do not run afoul even unintentionally on any occasion. The U.S. law clearly mandates that every physician, nurse, veterinarian or pharmacist that prescribes, administers or dispenses controlled substances should have a controlled substance license registration issued by the federal Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). Any person can apply for the DEA license using the DEA Form 224. Manufacturers, distributors, researchers, importers and exporters should use DEA Form 225. Complete instructions accompany the forms. These forms are available on the DEA website and could also be obtained by contacting the DEA field office or headquarters. However, since May last year, the DEA regulations have been amended to require all applications for both DEA new registration and renewal to be submitted online only. Indeed, from 11th May, 2022, the DEA has stopped ac...
