The Drug Addiction Treatment Act of 2000 created the opportunity to expand treatment for opioid use disorder into the mainstream of medical practice, increase the number of persons treated, and have an important positive public health impact. The legislation specifies several ways in which prescribers can be considered qualified to prescribe and dispense buprenorphine in their offices for the treatment of opioid use disorder. The completion of this training fulfills the requirement prior to notifying the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) of their intention to begin prescribing buprenorphine for the treatment of opioid use disorder.
