Midyear Regional Meeting - Policy Proposal
 

"APhA-ASP encourages that all prescriptions given to patients be tamper-resistant."

 

Background Statement:

 

Fraudulent prescriptions are a problem for nearly all community pharmacies.  Some payers have already started requiring tamper-resistant measures, such as the use of tamper-proof paper or written out quantities (ex. Sixty {#60}), be in place in order for prescription claims to be paid.  Our intention with this resolution is that all prescriptions should have these tamper-resistant measures, in order to reduce the likelihood that forged prescriptions are filled and dispensed to patients.
