EDUCATION
TMA offers a variety of online and in-person programs to help physicians fill continuing education gaps. From brief videos to specialized curriculum to leadership training, our proprietary content helps Tennessee doctors maintain professional licensure and certifications, and improve their competence and knowledge.
MATE ACT EDUCATION COURSE
Prescribers with a DEA license need to complete a one-time, eight-hour education course on the treatment and management of patients with substance use disorders before applying for, or renewing, a DEA registration. This training requirement is included in the recently enacted Medication Access and Training Expansion (MATE) Act.
TMA has a course for all prescribers that fulfills the DEA education requirement. What sets this offering apart from others is its applicability to all Tennessee prescribers. The cost of the course is $299. However, the special discounted rate of $249 is available exclusively through this offering. Participants must use the code TN50 to take advantage of this special rate.
