Double Dipping with FL Database??
      #141893 - 02/25/04 07:14 PM

I had a quick question I’m 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 OP’s have locations in FL in which I’m assuming does not have such a database. As many have done in a crunch I’m 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 OP’s b/c their current physicians do not control their pain and/or anxiety needs, I worry and get so paranoid the MIB’s will come knocking on my door. Would all these OP’s have to start entering patient info say from 2 years ago, etc or would the database start fresh when it’s 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 I’m so leery of the MIB’s, 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.

I am just wagering a guess here....
I have a feeling it would start fresh. Can you imagine the man hours it would take to input every controlled prescription into a statewide database? Man hours=tons of money. No state is going to want to spend that kind of money to pay people to go through all those records. Besides that, there are privacy issues. You can't have some clerk going through all the records like that.
I really believe it will start fresh and all records will be put in by the pharmacist who fills the scripts. Just a guess though....
