What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill requires certification of a pain clinic in order for it to operate. A pain

clinic must submit an application to the Department of Health Services (DHS),

which is required to issue the certificate of operation if the pain clinic meets the

requirements specified in the bill, has paid any required application fee, and meets

any requirements established by DHS. Each pain clinic location is certified

separately regardless of whether the clinic is operated under the same business

name, ownership, or management as another pain clinic. The bill requires a pain

clinic to have a medical director who is a physician that practices in Wisconsin and

requires a pain clinic to report annually to DHS certain information specified in the

bill. The bill also requires a physician or other health care provider at a pain clinic

authorized to prescribe pain medication to review for treatment purposes an

individual's records on the prescription drug monitoring database for use of other

pain medications.
