    The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has decided to revoke Dr. Yogesh Patel's DEA registration because he is not permitted to handle controlled substances as he lacks the authority to practice medicine in Colorado. The DEA's Order to Show Cause indicated that Dr. Patel's Colorado medical license is restricted, preventing him from practicing medicine, which is a critical requirement for maintaining his DEA registration. Dr. Patel did not request a hearing or dispute these allegations, leading to the revocation of his registration and denial of any pending applications. This decision was finalized by Acting Administrator Derek Maltz and will take effect on March 17, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    In a simple way, the government said that Dr. Yogesh Patel can no longer give out certain medicines because he's not allowed to work as a doctor in Colorado anymore. Since he didn't argue against this, his permission to handle these medicines was taken away.

    The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) issued an Order to Show Cause to Laura M. Bellew, a nurse practitioner from New Mexico, proposing to revoke her DEA registration because she no longer has the authority to handle controlled substances in New Mexico. This is because her nursing licenses were suspended by the New Mexico State Board of Nursing in January 2023. Bellew did not request a hearing to contest the charges, effectively admitting the DEA's allegations. As a result, the DEA decided to revoke her registration and deny any pending applications related to controlled substances in New Mexico.

    Simple Explanation

    The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) decided to take away Laura M. Bellew's permission to use certain medicines because she lost her ability to do so in her state. This happened because her nursing licenses in New Mexico were taken away earlier.
