Title: AN ACT to amend Tennessee Code Annotated, Title 53 and Title 63, relative to buprenorphine products.

Summary

Present law generally prohibits healthcare providers who are permitted to prescribe Schedule II or III drugs from prescribing a buprenorphine product for the treatment of opioid use disorder unless the provider meets certain conditions.

This bill clarifies that this condition is also met by healthcare providers who are subcontract ed through the contracted healthcare vendor for the department of correction or a county or municipal jail.
