Training & certification expected
No state-mandated injector training beyond licensure; however, physician oversight is mandatory.
The license that lets you inject
MD/DO, NP/PA under physician supervision, RN under physician delegation
If you’re an RN
Yes, under physician delegation; must be supervised by on-site or available physician
Why the order still matters
Required; in-person exam mandatory for initial visit Training gets you the skill; a valid order or good-faith exam is what keeps the treatment lawful.
What to verify in Illinois
Ensure your medical director is on-site or immediately available for all injection procedures and that all RN/NP/PA delegations are in writing.
