DEA Numbers and Medicare (31.83K)
The misuse of DEA registration numbers by the insurance industry, and the inappropriate requirement of DEA numbers by pharmacies, continues to be a concern and a top priority for the AOA Washington Office. Recently, they were made aware of the inappropriate requirement for DEA registration numbers in connection with prescriptions written for patients eligible for the Medicare Part D drug discount program. Patients have been reporting back to their optometrists that they were unable to get their prescriptions filled because their pharmacy required DEA numbers even though these prescriptions were for non-controlled substances. If you have encountered this problem, please download the complaint form, complete it and fax it to the numbers at the bottom of the sheet. A compilation of state evidence will be useful as the AOA argues the case for correction of inappropriate use of DEA numbers. Thank you.
