Enrollment and Utilization of the CSRS
Statute § 90-113.74A of the North Carolina Controlled Substance Reporting System Act stipulates that within 30 days after obtaining an initial or renewal license (which is interpreted as a valid DEA registration ) that confers the authority to prescribe a controlled substance for the purpose of providing medical care for a patient, the licensee shall demonstrate to the satisfaction of the licensing board that he or she is registered for access to the controlled substances reporting system. A violation of this section may constitute cause for the licensing board having jurisdiction over the licensee to suspend or revoke the license. (2016-94, s. 12F.7(c).
The North Carolina Board of Nursing (NCBON) is providing a streamlined registration process to the NC Controlled Substances Reporting System (CSRS) through collaboration with NC Department of Health and Human Services (NCDHHS).
