DIVERSION REGISTRATION
Multiple Locations/Multiple DEA registrationsTitle 21 United States Code (USC) Section 822. Persons Required to Register
-A separate registration shall be required at each principal place of business or professional practice where the applicant manufactures, distributes, or dispenses
controlled substances or list I chemicals
-DEA has historically provided an exception that a practitioner who is registered at one location, but also practices at other locations, is not required to register separately for
any other location at which controlled substances are only prescribed (21 CFR 1301.12(b)(3)) as long as it is in the same state.
- DEA registration is based on a State license, it cannot authorize controlled substance dispensing outside that State. Hence, the separate registration exception applies only to
locations within the same State in which practitioners have their DEA registrations.
11
DIVERSION REGISTRATION Locum Tenens
Practitioners may only administer, dispense, or prescribe a controlled substance in a state if they hold a DEA registration in that state, and are complying with all federal and state
laws and regulations. - Locum tenens have the following 3 options regarding their DEA registration when planning to legally handle controlled substances in multiple states: 1. Apply for a separate DEA registration in each state where they plan to administer, dispense, or prescribe controlled substances; 2. An alternative, if the practitioner will be working solely in a hospital/clinic setting, they may use the hospital’s DEA registration instead of registering independently with DEA if the hospital agrees and the situation warrants, as outlined in 21 C.F.R. §1301.22(c);3. Alternately, under 21 C.F.R. §1301.51, the practitioner may transfer their existing DEA registration from one state to another as needed by contacting ODR, or requesting the change on-line at www.DEADIVERSION.USDOJ.GOV. DEA will investigate these modifications of registration as if they were new applications. DEA will issue a new DEA certificate with the appropriate changes if DEA approves the modification.
