After enactment of the CAA, there are no longer limitations, under federal law, on the number of patients with OUD that a practitioner may treat with buprenorphine. On December 29, 2022, President Biden signed into law the CAA which expanded patient access to medications for OUD. Specifically, Pub. L. No. 117-328, div. FF, tit. I(B), ch. 6, § 1262(a)(1), 136 Stat. 4459, 5681 (2022) amended the Controlled Substances Act by repealing the "DATA-Waiver" requirement codified in 21 U.S.C. 823(g)(2), which had previously imposed limits or patient caps on the number of OUD patients a prescriber may treat with buprenorphine. These limits were previously outlined at 21 U.S.C. 823(g)(2)(B)(iii), and allowed qualified practitioners to treat up to 30, 100, or 275 patients at one time. EO-DEA263, DEA-DC-066, March 21, 2023.

For information on applying for a buprenorphine waiver notification for 30, 100 and 275 patients, please visit our Buprenorphine Waiver Management webpage.

You're probably asking about this because you are concerned about the percentage of dues that are not tax deductible. SA国际传媒is a 501c(3) organization, therefore, the non-deductibility rules do not apply to our organization.

To find out whether all or a portion of your dues are tax deductible, please seek advice from your accountant.

The easiest way for jobseekers to search for physician positions, broken down into four easy steps:

• Login to your career center account (if you already have one established); otherwise go to 
• Click on the 'discipline' link in the search section (screen shot below):

• This will open the disciplines section.  You can now click on the 'physicians/surgeons' discipline, which will then move it up to the 'active filters' section (screen shot below):

• This will narrow it down to only positions posted under that discipline. You can narrow it down more by using 'state'province' / 'education' etc. When selecting 'MD' under 'education' this will narrow it down to results for the jobseeker.

No, but many state medical societies offer medical liability policies. Please check your state medical association website to find out if they have a relationship with an agency that offers coverage.

SBIRT and SA国际传媒Criteria Level 0.5 are closely related though not fully congruent in the following ways:

1. SBIRT is meant to encourage screening of all patients to rule out or in the possibility of a substance use disorder (SUD) regardless of whether there may be the appearance of a substance-related risk or problem.
2. Level 0.5 was designed to provide education, risk advice and services to people who may be at more specific risk of developing a SUD because they may already have had a substance-related problem e.g., a DUI or may be at risk e.g., experimenting with substances and lives in a family with addiction issues.
3. With SBIRT the person may have come for healthcare or mental health services for something unrelated to substance use, but because even people with some awareness of a substance problem have trouble reaching out for help; or may not even be aware of a substance problem, then SBIRT can help identify and prevent full blown addiction.
4. Level 0.5 clients would most likely have been identified as having some risk for a SUD by virtue of some substance use already and other circumstances and vulnerabilities that brings them to the attention of a 0.5 provider e.g., a DUI, school or work problems, family history and their living environment.

As of October 15, 2018, SA国际传媒has partnered with the Commission on the Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) to offer an SA国际传媒level of care certification for addiction treatment programs. After refinement of ratable elements during a two-step pilot process in 2019 and early 2020, The SA国际传媒Level of Care Certification™ was launched nationwide on June 1, 2020. Following the development of the SA国际传媒Criteria and CONTINUUM Decision Engine, certification is the next critical step to support the implementation of standardized care based on nationally established standards. The SA国际传媒Level of Care Certification™ supports federal and state initiatives to increase access to safe and effective residential addiction treatment, including the 1115 Substance Use Disorder Demonstrations and pending federal legislation.

This partnership links ASAM’s addiction treatment expertise with CARF’s accreditation knowledge to certify that treatment centers can offer care in line with The SA国际传媒Criteria for a given level of care (at this time only levels 3.1, 3.5, and 3.7). Levels of care have been included in the recently passed federal opioid legislative package. This certification ensures that The SA国际传媒Criteria are properly applied to achieve the best patient outcomes possible. It also allows patients, their families, and payors to identify addiction treatment programs that will best support treatment and recovery. For more information, please see ASAM's LOC page. 

The respected DFSA国际传媒title is only granted every other year to select SA国际传媒physician members for their significant contributions to the Society and to the field of addiction medicine. Join the distinguished ranks of some of your colleagues by receiving recognition for your considerable professional efforts.

The 2023 Distinguished Fellow application will open June 15, 2022 and close August 15, 2022. See our Distinguished Fellows page for more information, including the criteria for becoming a Distinguished Fellow and a list of current SA国际传媒Distinguished Fellows.

In January 2019, the SA国际传媒Board of Directors approved a policy on the Use and Maintenance of the Distinguished Fellow (DFASAM) Designation which will serve to provide clear direction and be the authoritative reference to consult when questions or issues arise.   for more details.
