A pain clinic regulation bill was passed by the Georgia Senate last week, according to a report by The Washington Post.
The legislation aims at regulating pain management clinics and would require the owner of the clinic to be a physician. It would not, however, require physicians or pharmacists to use a state registry to track how much of a painkiller a patient is receiving.
The bill, which has already been passed by the Georgia House, now goes to the governor, according to the report.
