State controlled substance license

State controlled substance license comes up constantly in physician searches about flexible work, locum tenens, and staffing models. Definitions differ by contract, specialty, and facility policy—so the safest mental model is to separate “what the term usually means” from “what your specific agreement says.”

If you are evaluating locum tenens jobs or physician staffing options, the practical move is to translate State controlled substance license into operational questions: who owns credentialing tasks, what is documented about volume and call, and what happens if the schedule changes mid-assignment.
