I’ve been working for 5 years in a FQHC in which the offer letter listed reimbursement of the DEA registration fee as one of the benefits. I received full reimbursement in 2020 without issue. They do not pay registration costs that you have already payed for before signing on, nor do they plan to.
After submitting my request for reimbursement this year, I was informed that they have decided to only reimburse 1/3 of the cost annually since DEA registration is valid for 3 years. They allege that paying the full amount would be covering “future expenses”. This sounds absurd to me and I informed them of the flaws in their argument, but they are not budging and issued a check for 1/3 of the amount.
I’m preparing to argue this further with support of both the union and medical director, and I want to know how other employers handle DEA and other license/registration costs that occur in cycles of more than one year.
