    64B8-9.0131: Training Requirements for Physicians Practicing in Pain Management Clinics

    The Board of Medicine hereby gives notice: that on March 4, 2013, an Order was filed on the Petition for Waiver or Variance. The Petition for Waiver was filed by Konstantine Yankopolous, M.D., on January 7, 2013, seeking a waiver from Rule 64B8-9.0131, F.A.C., with regard to the pain management training requirement for CME courses. The Notice was published in Volume 39, No. 5, of the Florida Administrative Register, on January 8, 2013. The Board, at its meeting held on February 2, 2013, voted to deny the Petition for Waiver or Variance finding that the Petitioner failed to demonstrate that he can meet the purpose of the underlying statute through his prior medical employment and training experience, and by completing CME courses that were awarded through attendance at a “Primary Care Conference” in Ft. Lauderdale taken on some undisclosed date.
    A copy of the Order or additional information may be obtained by contacting: the Board of Medicine, 4052 Bald Cypress Way, Bin #C03, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-3053.
