PMP Utilization Monitored
* Prescription Monitoring Program – PMP: Failure to check PMP is grounds for disciplinary action by the respective licensing board of each Prescriber. PMP must be checked at the initial prescription and then at least every 180 days. For best practice, the PMP should be checked more frequently than 180 days, but it is not required by 63 O.S. §2-309(D).
Chronic Pain Prescriptions: If continuing treatment for three months or more, practitioner shall: (1) review every three (3) months the course of treatment, any new information regarding etiology of pain and progress toward treatment objectives; (2) assess patient prior to every renewal to determine if patient is experiencing dependency and document assessment; (3) periodically make reasonable efforts, unless clinically contraindicated to stop, decrease dosage, or try other treatment modalities; (4) review PMP; (5) monitor compliance with patient provider agreement, and state “chronic pain” on the face of the prescription.
