Buprenorphine Waiver (DATA 2000) MAT Trainings

Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine is hosting two buprenorphine waiver medication-assisted treatment (MAT) training sessions will be held for health care providers who want to receive their Drug Enforcement Administration DEA-X license to treat opioid use disorder with buprenorphine.

Buprenorphine waiver (DATA 2000) MAT trainings will be held Dec. 20-21, 2018, and March 12-13, 2019, at the Boonshoft School of Medicine in 120 White Hall on the campus of Wright State University.

The buprenorphine training program is an eight-hour live training with an instructor from ASAM. The second day consists of four hours of training provided by the Ohio Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services (OMHAS). Certified nurse practitioners and physician assistants must take an additional 16 hours of online training to receive their DEA-X license.

Physicians, residents, certified nurse practitioners and physician assistants are eligible to receive a stipend from Ohio Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services (OMHAS) if they complete both days of the training (plus the additional 16 hours for CNP/PAs), have their Ohio license and submit their paperwork within 90 days of the training. Eight CME credits are given for the training.
