HR 1528 was signed into law on August 1, 2014. The Senate companion legislation was S. 1171 and passed without amendment and by unanimous consent. This legislation would clarify that it is legal for veterinarians to carry and dispense controlled substances to ensure they are able to provide proper care for their animal patients, so long as they are licensed in the state in which they practice and registered with the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA). Beginning in 2012, large animal and equine veterinarians who identified their residential address as their principal place of business began receiving notices from the DEA that they were in violation of the Controlled Substances Act. It is not uncommon for many rural veterinarians with home-based practices to provide mobile veterinary services to their clients; and for more than 40 years, the DEA had recognized the unique circumstances surrounding the veterinary profession and provided them with the flexibility they needed to treat their animal patients in the field. It was only until recently that the DEA changed its interpretation and began targeting veterinarians. After contacting the DEA in 2012 and exhausting all avenues to work with them to fix this problem administratively, Congressman Schrader introduced the Veterinary Medicine Mobility Act, H.R. 1528, which would clarify the Controlled Substances Act so that it is indeed legal for licensed veterinarians who are registered with the DEA to carry and use medications in the field. The legislation was endorsed by over 130 organizations across the country, including all 50 state veterinary medical associations.
