CURES Registration Requirements. California law (Health and Safety Code Section 11165.1) requires all California licensed prescribers authorized to prescribe scheduled drugs to register for access to CURES 2.0 by July 1, 2016 or upon issuance of a Drug Enforcement Administration Controlled Substance Registration Certificate, whichever occurs later.

CURES. The Controlled substance Utilization Review and Evaluation System (CURES), maintained by the Department of Justice (DOJ), tracks all Schedule II, III, and IV controlled substances dispensed in California.

An approved health care practitioner or pharmacist may submit queries to the CURES database through a health information technology system if the entity that operates the health information technology system can certify meeting the requirements specified in HSC section 11165.1(a)(1)(E).

Note: Effective July 1, 2016, all California-licensed pharmacists and all California-licensed prescribers with DEA numbers must be registered to access CURES. Please visit the Department of Justice website to register. CURES Certification. On April 2, 2018, the California Department of Justice certified CURES is ready for statewide use.

CURES Mandatory Use. The Controlled Substance Utilization Review and Evaluation System (CURES) was certified for statewide use by the Department of Justice (DOJ) on April 2, 2018. Therefore, the mandate to consult CURES prior to prescribing, ordering, administering, or furnishing a Schedule II–IV controlled substance became effective October 2, 2018.
