Bill Summary
AN ACT to amend 961.385 (2) (cs) 1., 961.385 (5) (b) and 961.385 (6) (a) of the statutes; relating to: the prescrip- tion drug monitoring program.
AI Summary
This bill extends two key provisions related to the Prescription Drug Monitoring Program (PDMP), a system that tracks prescription medications to help prevent drug misuse and potential overdoses. First, the bill continues the requirement that healthcare practitioners review a patient's prescription records in the PDMP before issuing a new prescription order, extending this mandate from April 1, 2025, to April 1, 2030. Second, the bill prolongs the Controlled Substances Board's obligation to conduct quarterly reviews of the PDMP, comparing actual program outcomes to projected outcomes, by extending the review requirement from October 30, 2025, to October 30, 2030. These extensions will help ensure continued oversight and monitoring of prescription drug dispensing, potentially allowing healthcare providers and regulatory bodies to maintain valuable insights into prescription drug usage patterns and effectiveness of the monitoring program.
