I am extremely hesitant to accept this as fact without a resource being offered up. It would be HIGHLY unlikely that any state agency would make such a unilateral quantification of prescribing limits on opiates. There are cancer pain sufferers and others out there than use FAR more than 120 pills of WHATEVER they are using per month.

This is just assinine if TN has REALLY instituted such a practice and I imagine the oncologists and pain management doctors would be up in arms about this!
