1 Colorado Prescription Drug Monitoring Program Department of Regulatory Agencies Division of Professions and Occupations State Board of Pharmacy

2 DORA is dedicated to preserving the integrity of the marketplace and is committed to promoting a fair and competitive business environment in Colorado. Consumer protection is our mission.

3 What is the Prescription Drug Monitoring Program (PDMP)? The PDMP is a secure online database of controlled substance prescription data dispensed by pharmacies located in Colorado and other states which are registered by the Colorado State Board of Pharmacy to dispense into Colorado. Colorado s PDMP provides prescribers and pharmacists a secure database with immediate access to their patients history of controlled substance prescriptions. The PDMP helps reduce doctor shopping, the practice by a patient of obtaining controlled substances from multiple health care practitioners and pharmacies without the prescribers or pharmacists knowledge of the other prescriptions. The information in the PDMP can help prescribers and pharmacists make more informed decisions when considering prescribing or dispensing a controlled substance prescription.

4 Why is the PDMP important? More than 255,000 Coloradans misuse prescription drugs. 1 The state health department reports that in 2012, more than twice as many people in Colorado died from overdose due to opioid pain killers than from drunk driving-related crashes (295 compared to 133, respectively). 2 Prescribers are using the PDMP for only 10% of Colorado patients receiving controlled substance prescriptions. Pharmacists are using the PDMP for only 22% of Colorado patients receiving controlled substance prescriptions. Prescribers and pharmacists may be inadvertently enabling the misuse of controlled substances by their Colorado patients when the information available in the PDMP is not used. 1. SAMHSA: NSDUH 2011 Results, 2012; 2. CHPHE: Vital Statistics, 2012;

5 An Enhanced Colorado PDMP: Part of a Comprehensive Solution The prescription drug misuse problem is complex, and requires a comprehensive solution. The Office of National Drug Control Policy and the Centers for Disease Control recommend five interrelated approaches 1 : Increased Public Awareness of the problem Better Education of Physicians and other Health Care Providers, including Dentists, Pharmacists, Nurses, etc. Safe Medication Storage and Disposal Options Increased access to Substance Abuse Treatment Enhanced Prescription Drug Monitoring Programs (PDMPs), to foster better clinical care and protect the public health. 1. ONDCP: Strategic Plan 2012, and CDC: Priorities for Prevention, 2013;

6 An Enhanced Colorado PDMP: Part of a Comprehensive Solution With the support of the Colorado Consortium s PDMP work group, DORA drafted and introduced legislation to enhance the Colorado Prescription Drug Monitoring Program. House Bill describes modifications to Colorado s Electronic Prescription Drug Monitoring Program statute. The program enhancements in the Bill were developed after review of stakeholder recommendations, including those made by Colorado licensed prescribers and pharmacists, and current users of the Colorado PDMP. Changes to Part 4 (CRS ) of the Pharmacists, Pharmacy Businesses and Pharmaceuticals Act resulting from House Bill became effective on May 21, 2014.

7 An Enhanced Colorado PDMP: Part of a Comprehensive Solution House Bill recommendations come after of year of research by more than 200 stakeholders who comprise the Colorado Consortium. The problem of drug misuse in Colorado is significant, and research from other states demonstrates that doctor shopping decreases when prescribers and pharmacists have active PDMP accounts, even when utilization of the PDMP is not mandated. Technical enhancements and legislative changes described in House Bill will make the PDMP easier than ever to use in a busy practice.

8 What does this May 2014 Law do? Mandates PDMP Practitioner / Pharmacist account creation by all Colorado licensed prescribing practitioners with DEA registrations and all Colorado licensed pharmacists. - By SEPTEMBER 30 TH All Colorado licensed Pharmacists & DEA-registered Colorado licensed Advanced Practice Nurses with Prescriptive Authority. - By OCTOBER 31 ST All DEA-registered Colorado licensed Dentists, Veterinarians, Optometrists & Podiatrists. - By NOVEMBER 30 TH All DEA-registered Colorado Medical Board licensees, including Physicians and Physician Assistants.

9 What does this May 2014 Law do? Allows the ability to delegate query of the database to designated PDMP account holders. - Allows Colorado licensed prescribing practitioners and pharmacists with active PDMP accounts the ability to approve designated individuals with their own PDMP accounts the ability to query the PDMP on behalf of the licensed practitioner or pharmacist. - The technical enhancements necessary are scheduled for implementation in January of 2015.

10 What does this May 2014 Law do? Allows the PDMP to send Unsolicited Reports to affected Prescribing Practitioners and Dispensing Pharmacies. - Unsolicited patient history reports of dispensed controlled substance prescriptions to be automatically sent to prescribing practitioners and dispensing pharmacies for the purposes of education and intervention to prevent and reduce occurrences of controlled substance misuse, abuse, and diversion. - No conclusions or judgments are made on the basis of the information provided in an unsolicited patient history report.

11 What does this May 2014 Law do? Allows reporting to the Colorado PDMP by federally owned and operated pharmacies. - Allows controlled substance prescription dispensing data to be reported by federally owned and operated pharmacies registered with the DEA, including pharmacies located in Colorado which are operated by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and pharmacies operated by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Indian Health Services.

12 What does this May 2014 Law do? - Expands Subpoena Authority to law enforcement to now include a pharmacy s PDMP dispensing records. - Provides the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment access for public health purposes. - Creates a PDMP Taskforce to further study the effectiveness of the PDMP. - Similar to access previously granted to prescribers licensed in another state, now allows access to Colorado PDMP data by pharmacists licensed in other states.

13 What does this May 2014 Law NOT do? Mandate utilization of the PDMP. Mandate delegated access of the PDMP. Mandate any requirements to act on an Unsolicited Report. Provide Law Enforcement direct access to the PDMP.
