Foundations in Addiction Medicine Training:
Meeting the DEA MATE Requirement for Physicians Prescribing Controlled Substances
Greetings to fellow members of the Medical College of Georgia family and guests. We would like to welcome you to our educational portal with videos dedicated to understanding the diagnosis and treatment of substance use disorders. As mandated by the Drug Enforcement Administration June 27, 2023, prescribers will need to complete 8.0 hours of continuing medical education related to the prevention and treatment of opioid use disorder and other substance use disorders. The mandate allows for asynchronous learning which you will hopefully find worthwhile through the first iteration of our Addiction Medicine videos included below. We plan to update these videos as appropriate as the field of Addiction Medicine continues to grow.
The Department of Psychiatry thanks Dr. Jasmine Shell, MD, Assistant Professor of Addiction Medicine for the contributions and development of the Foundations in Addiction Medicine modules.
