Title: Registration Requirements for Individual Practitioners Operating in a "Locum Tenens" Capacity 
Abstract: On December 1, 2006, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) published in the Federal Register a Final Rule "Clarification of Registration Requirements for Individual Practitioners" (71 FR 69478). The Final Rule makes it clear that when an individual practitioner practices in more than one State, he or she must obtain a separate DEA registration for each State. The Final Rule also noted that DEA would address its policy regarding locum tenens practitioners in a separate future document. To adequately address this issue, DEA is publishing this Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking to seek information useful to the agency in promulgating regulations regarding locum tenens practitioners.
