Flaming/Flame Wars
Flaming is reacting to someone's board posting or PM in a hostile manner by publicly chastising the person or bombarding the person with nasty posts or PM's. Flaming may occur to users that engage in behavior that violates what is considered proper board netiquette. A flame war occurs when two or more users flame each other in an escalating manner that threatens to continue unabated. If you notice a flame war developing just notify the moderator or adminitrator and let them handle it. Do not take part in flame wars. If you do you will be banned even if you did not start it :-)

We have some very exciting news for everyone!!! After discussion today between our lawyers and the NCBOP we are able to temporarily fill your prescriptions. This decision was reached after over a month of correspondence with the NCBOP and is what we here at Woody Pharmacy have been waiting for. As you understand, we only transferred out one refill last month, but because of the constant extensions, we have had to transfer out two refills for some patients. This was what we felt was in the best interests of everyone involved and was done for the benefit of the patient, with no further cost to the patient to obtain a new prescription. We know that many of you have had problems with other OPs and did not want to be transferred out at all. We went out of our way to take care of all of our patients to the best of our ability.
We have been given this temporary stay until further dialog has taken place with the NCBOP. Our lawyers and the NCBOP will be meeting on Thursday, February 19, 2004 to discuss the outcome of our case. Many of you might wonder, Why bother getting a refill if you are only going to stop filling again? and to that we must reply that many of you have decided to wait on your refill until Woody Pharmacy could process them and this is the time for that. Also, we feel confident that the NCBOP will allow us to continue to fill prescriptions after we meet with them after Thursday, and would like to be caught up with our workload when this decision is made. Basically, it keeps us from being backed up and helps to get prescriptions shipped to you in a timely manner. We do not recommend waiting until Thursday to call if your refill is due now! That will create a backlog that will be late getting shipped out.
We are sorry that we had to transfer some of you to other pharmacies, but at the same time our major concern has been getting your needed medications to you. If you have had to utilize another pharmacy for a recent consultation, we hope that you will consider us the next time your prescriptions are renewed. Unfortunately if you have a new order at another service we will unlikely be able to transfer any refills from that pharmacy.
We thank you all for your constant support and hope that you can all see how hard we have worked to keep you informed and taken care of during this whole process. We understand and appreciate al of the comments, negative and positive, and trust that this situation will be resolved shortly. We would like to say that everything we have done has been in your best interest and we shall endeavor to earn your continued respect.
Congratulations on this good news, I hope it becomes the standing policy within your state.
Thank you for providing more clear information. The frustration, and in some cases, the impact upon patient care, that's been felt among members of this community has been nothing less than significant. Please continue the recent positive trend by using the feedback and insight you've been able to gain from this source and others as a means of ensuring future regulatory compliance and patient care.
Before customers again choose to fulfill their telemedicine prescriptions through Woody's, what will their standing policy be regarding the transfer of remaining refills, should the North Carolina Board of Pharmacy take additional action that interferes with your ability to process prescriptions for OP coordinators? Having accessibility to this knowledge is an essential factor in choosing Woody's to fulfill refillable telemedicine prescriptions until the the regulatory environment in North Carolina solidifies permanently.
