Abstract
A highly unusual meeting took place in 2014—a group of experts, including federal officials, and top legislators – namely, former senators Carl Levin (D‐Michigan) and Orrin Hatch (R‐Utah) met in June of that year to discuss changing the Drug Addiction Treatment Act of 2000 (DATA 2000), which regulated buprenorphine prescribing up until it was eviscerated in the spending bill last month (see https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/adaw.20431). The lawmakers wanted to raise the maximum number of patients one physician could have (at the time, it was 30 under DATA 2000, and 100 under the 2006 amendment; since then it has been raised further).
