Apply For Waiver to Register for Buprenorphine Training/Certification

Denver, CO
The Colorado Advanced Practice Psychiatric Nurses

Hi everyone,

The 24 waiver training for buprenorphine is NOW AVAILABLE and the SAMHSA waiver application is NOW FIXED (thanks in large part to Jose!!), so we need to spread this information out to our organizations!!

Please let me know if I can help with this in any way, here are links:

ASAM training:
http://www.asam.org/quality-practice/practice-resources/nurse-practitioners-and-physician-assistants-prescribing-buprenorphine

AANP training link:

Once the 24 hours is completed, the NP or PA needs to fill out the waiver application at:
http://buprenorphine.samhsa.gov/forms/select-practitioner-type.php

And then email certificates and DEA and licenses to:
NPs and PAs may send copies of their training certificates to infobuprenorphine@samhsa.hhs.gov or faxed them to 301-576-5237

Thanks,
Dr. Mary Weber
