paid as a result of his criminal sentence, he answered precisely to the cent. Tr.
51. When he talked about the mistake in the billing, he corrected himself when he initially said we, and stated unequivocally that it was really him.
Id. 49. In a situation such as this one that involved a mistake, it would have been very easy for Respondent to have shifted the blame or mitigated the circumstances surrounding his crime, but he unfalteringly maintained that it was his responsibility. H
Additionally, Respondent has consistently demonstrated that he has taken the necessary steps to correct the error. The Respondent has returned to clinical care, and is not involved in billing or any other administrative responsibility. Respondent recognized that he should not hold a management or administrative position and Respondent changed his practice area.
By doing so, Respondent has made the effort to ensure that there is no recurrence of his mistake in the future.
I find this to be further evidence of his acceptance of responsibility that demonstrates that he has taken active steps to prevent future mistakes. He also attends a few conferences a year, receives regulatory update mailings, and stated that his role as adjunct faculty forces him to stay current. Id. at 41. I
Although correcting improper behavior and practices is very important to establish acceptance of responsibility, conceding wrongdoing is critical to reestablishing trust with the Agency.
Holiday CVS, L.L.C., 77 FR 62,316, 62,346 2012; Daniel A. Glick, D.D.S., 80 FR at 74,801. Based upon the evidence presented, I find that the Respondent has demonstrated the full measure of acceptance of responsibility, and has fully demonstrated that he is remorseful for his actions and has taken considerable steps to ensure that this conduct will not be repeated.
Loss of Trust Where the Government has sustained its burden and established that a registrant has committed acts inconsistent with the public interest, that registrant must present sufficient mitigating evidence to assure the Acting Administrator that he can be entrusted with the responsibility commensurate with such a registration. Medicine Shoppe, 73 FR at 387.
As demonstrated by the evidence presented in this matter, it is clear to me that the Respondent has unequivocally accepted responsibility for his conduct.

His underlying criminal conduct did not relate to his handling of controlled substances and the Government has not alleged or demonstrated any deficiencies by the Respondent related to controlled substance. J
There is no indication that the Respondent has ever improperly handled controlled substances or that he represents a danger to the public. Based upon the evidence presented, and consistent with Jackson, Miller, and Stein, the Respondent has clearly demonstrated that he can be entrusted to properly maintain his COR.
Recommendation Considering the entire record before me, the conduct of the hearing, and observation of the testimony of the witnesses presented, I find that the Government has met its burden of proof and has established a prima facie case for revocation. However, K the evidence suggests that the Respondent has unequivocally accepted responsibility, is remorseful for his conduct, has withdrawn from any responsibilities related to billing or other administrative duties, and has presented convincing evidence demonstrating that the Agency can entrust him to maintain his COR.
Therefore, I recommend the Respondents DEA Certificates of Registration MJ3401609 and MJ4509331
should not be revoked and any pending applications for renewal or modification of such registration, or for additional DEA registrations, be granted.
Signed: February 19, 2020.
