Provides that in a denial for a rehearing, the Secretary may enter an order in accordance with the recommendations of the hearing officer (rather than the Department). Provides that the hearing officer shall report the hearing officer's findings of fact, conclusions of law, and recommendations to the Secretary (rather than the Department).

Provides that in accordance with the requirement for prescribers of controlled substances to undergo training under the federal Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023 every prescriber who is licensed to prescribe controlled substances shall, during the pre-renewal period, complete one hour (rather than 3 hours) of continuing education on safe opioid prescribing practices offered or accredited by a professional association, State government agency, or federal government agency. Effective immediately.
