Medicine or pharmacy is not your thing is it?
1. For a practitioner, the cycle is every 3 years, not every year.
2. DEA certifies practitioners, pharmacies, distributors, and manufacturers. It does not "give" people numbers.
3. AFAIK, CII requires a written prescription which would require the prescriber to add his/her DEA number. However, most modern practitioners use electronic prescriptions now for CIII and below.
4. The DEA does not give you a PDR. PDRs are outdated now. Hardly anyone uses them. Where do you get your (mis)information?
