(28) The term mid-level practitioner means an individual practitioner, other than a physician, dentist, veterinarian, or podiatrist, who is licensed, registered, or otherwise permitted by the United States or the jurisdiction in which he/she practices, to dispense a controlled substance in the course of professional practice. Examples of mid-level practitioners include, but are not limited to, health care providers such as nurse practitioners, nurse midwives, nurse anesthetists, clinical nurse specialists and physician assistants who are authorized to dispense controlled substances by the state in which they practice.
Mid-Level Practitioners Table Description This page represents the controlled substances authority for Mid-level Practitioner's by discipline within the state of which they practice. The first column gives the category of Mid-Level Practitioners and the second column gives a yes or no indicating that the category can or cannot be licensed within that particular state through the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). A yes alone indicates that all five schedules can be applied for. A yes with a C meaning controlled substance and a roman numeral meaning what schedule(s) that category can apply for when registering for a license. The second column also gives special instructions like administer only, dispense only or order only. It may also indicate if the DEA is reviewing a new law to see if it is in fact consistent with the issuance of a DEA registration for controlled substances.
