But isn't all of that irrelevent? In other words, I thought all 17,000 of Florida's pharmacies were part of a network that automatically reports each filled RX to a central database that the feds use to track 'doctor shopping' or 'double dipping' - therefore bypassing any need for internal tracking by pharmacies. In other words, if you order an anxiety med (which gets filled by a separate pharmacy) too soon before you're supposed to run out (from the first pharmacy), don't the feds automatically see a red flag in their database (despite an individual pharmacy not seeing it and still filling the RX anyway)?
Let's say someone orders prescription 'X' which is 30 or 60 count and runs out a few weeks early - then makes an order for more from another pharmacy in that same state (a pharmacy that approves the RX and ships it out to him or her). What defines the cut off point for double dipping or doctor shopping if the orders are made relatively far apart (from different pharmacies) yet still overlap a bit?
Also, if one refuses the Fedex or UPS man's delivery, does the RX get sent back and become 'unchecked' from the central database as having been filled? The websites don't respond to e-mails or phone calls when I try to refund anything or ask questions.
