Attestation at renewal

40 Category 1 hours each two-year cycle; compliance certified during renewal in even-numbered years; annual license renewal runs May 1 through June 30. From 2026-02-27, compliance is demonstrated through a board-recognized CME tracking organization (ACCME/CE Broker) or active ABMS/AOA board certification rather than direct document submission. Licensees with an active DEA certificate complete 5 hours on prescribing medications with emphasis on controlled substances (Part 2610 Ch. 2).
