DEA, should employer pay?

Published

Hi all,

I recently got a part time position in a pediatrician's office. I just got my license number last week and am working through getting my NPI number and my DEA number. Getting my DEA number is $731/year! Is this something my employer can/should pay for or is this something I am responsible for?

Thanks in advance!

Also note that the federal DEA is separate. Transition to a more private role and someone needs to pay for it.

Right, my state DEA specifically states for University of.... use only.

Yes, we get the federal DEA and it's every 3 years. We get $2500 CME to spend as we choose including DEA, license fees, etc etc

My work pays for it. They have someone who manages this. I forgot mine was up for renewal and they sent an email reminding me to either pay it and submit it for reimbursement or authorize them to renew it for me . This does not come amount of my CME money.
