Upon completing it, I filled out an application for a
Drug Enforcement Administration number, and was asked if I would allow my name to be listed on the SAMHSA Web site.
A new
Drug Enforcement Administration number is assigned to identify physicians as qualified to provide this treatment; physicians must certify that they will see no more than 30 patients at a time and that they can provide other necessary services for addicts such as counseling on-site or via referrals.
These lists can include information like each physician's
Drug Enforcement Administration number and Social Security number-exactly the kind of information the AMA Delegates did not want given out to drug companies.
