I had a quick question Iím hoping someone can answer for me. In my great state, we have a drug monitoring system where any scheduled drug is catalogued and anytime a new rx is filled, etc, they can catch you in a minute for double dipping, doctor shopping, etc. As of now, it seems the majority of the OPís have locations in FL in which Iím assuming does not have such a database. As many have done in a crunch Iím sure during holidays or such, have ordered from buymeds, tropical, etc. However, even though FL does not have such a database now, if they do decide to incorporate one in the future, will those folks that have double dipped in the past during a crunch be caught? Or would the database start fresh? I guess like many of you here that use OPís b/c their current physicians do not control their pain and/or anxiety needs, I worry and get so paranoid the MIBís will come knocking on my door. Would all these OPís have to start entering patient info say from 2 years ago, etc or would the database start fresh when itís implemented? Does that make sense? Just wondering if anyone has thought about this or new the answer of how a database like this would start. Because Iím so leery of the MIBís, I have never had to double dip and never order from an IOP for this simple reason, but with my tolerance building I am afraid I would in the future and worry. Just wanted some thoughts on this. Thanks.
