What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill repeals an exemption from the requirement under the prescription

drug monitoring program that a prescribing practitioner review a patient's records

before the practitioner issues a prescription order for a monitored prescription drug

to the patient. The exemption currently allows a prescribing practitioner to issue a

prescription order for a monitored prescription drug without reviewing the patient's

records if the prescription order is for a number of doses that is intended to last the

patient three days or less and is not subject to refill. This bill repeals that exemption

but does not affect any other existing exemptions from the requirement.
