Delaware recognizes care relationships for opioid treatment
Delaware law expands the definition of a patient-practitioner relationship to include treatment for opioid use disorder. The care relationship must be properly established under Title 24, Section 6003 of Delaware law. This applies to Schedule III through V medicines approved by the FDA for treating opioid use disorder. The law does not create a new payment or benefit amount.
