New licensing and penalties for pain doctors

Interventional pain management counts as practicing medicine. You must be licensed under Oklahoma’s medical or osteopathic laws to offer it. Physician violations are unprofessional conduct and can mean fines or losing your license. The law defines what counts as interventional pain care and key terms. Beginning November 1, 2026, these rules apply statewide.

New rules for nurse anesthetists

Nurse anesthetists can give lumbar epidural steroid injections and peripheral nerve blocks. A physician must request it, supervise it, and be available on site. A nurse anesthetist cannot run a freestanding pain clinic without direct supervision by a physician board‑certified in interventional pain management (or equivalent). Registered nurse violations are unprofessional conduct and can mean fines or loss of license. These rules start November 1, 2026.
