Controlled substances: pain management.

Abstract

(1) Existing law authorizes the Department of Justice to employ a physician to interview and examine any patient in connection with the prescription, possession, or use of a controlled substance, requires the patient to submit to the interview and examination, and authorizes the physician to testify in prescribed administrative proceedings. This bill would repeal that provision. (2) Existing law, the Medical Practice Act, provides for the licensing and regulation of physicians and surgeons by the Medical Board of California. The violation of specified provisions of the act is a crime. Existing law authorizes a physician and surgeon to prescribe for, or dispense or administer to, a person under his or her treatment for a medical condition, drugs or prescription controlled substances for the treatment of pain or a condition causing pain, including, but not limited to, intractable pain. Existing law sets forth the Pain Patient's Bill of Rights. This bill would revise the Pain Patient's Bill of Rights.
