LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

AB 2086, Gallagher. Controlled substances: CURES database.

Existing law classifies certain controlled substances into designated schedules. Existing law requires the Department of Justice to maintain the Controlled Substance Utilization Review and Evaluation System (CURES) for the electronic monitoring of the prescribing and dispensing of Schedule II, Schedule III, and Schedule IV controlled substances by a health care practitioner authorized to prescribe, order, administer, furnish, or dispense a Schedule II, Schedule III, or Schedule IV controlled substance.

This bill would allow prescribers to access the CURES database for a list of patients for whom that prescriber is listed as a prescriber in the CURES database.

Vote: MAJORITY Appropriation: NO Fiscal Committee: YES Local Program: NO
