13 SPPAN is an association of leaders, representing a variety of health care and consumer organizations, and individuals, who work together in a cooperative and coordinated fashion to effect positive pain policy on the state level policy that guarantees access to comprehensive and effective pain care for all people living with pain. SPPAN s Mission: To promote person-centered care for people affected by pain through advancing effective pain policy. California: SB 809, introduced by Sens. DeSaulnier and Steinberg, with 4 Senate and 1 House co-authors; passed the Senate; passed out of the Assembly Public Safety Committee on 6/25 and the Committee on Business, Professions and Consumer Protection on 8/13; re-referred to the Appropriations Committee, which will hear it on August 30. This bill would fund the California PMP (CURES) by establishing a separate CURES Fund within the state treasury, and would require the licensing boards to assess an annual fee of $6 on licensees authorized to prescribe, order, administer, furnish, or dispense controlled substances, with the fee to be collected at the time of license renewal; would allow the Department of Consumer Affairs to decrease this fee if less money is required to fund CURES; would permit insurers, health care service plans, manufacturers, and other donors to voluntarily contribute to the CURES fund; would require the board to develop and disseminate educational materials related to assessing risk of abuse and diversion; would require practitioners authorized to prescribe, order, administer, furnish, or dispense controlled substances to register to access CURES. Action: We support this bill as it currently stands, but would ideally like to see the addition of permission for delegates to access CURES information on behalf of practitioners. We ask advocates to contact their legislators in support, and to request the addition of delegate capability to this bill.
