Many PDMPs require prescribers and dispensers to enroll with and/or query the PDMP. In many instances, PDMPs have very specific circumstances or conditions as to when enrollment is required or when a query should be performed.
| To better understand the mandatory enrollment and usage conditions by PDMP, visit TTAC’s Mandated Enrollment and Usage page. |
The Mandatory Use Module is fully configurable by the PDMP, and a highly interactive compliance-reporting module that allows authorized PDMP users to review a prescriber’s adherence to PDMP-specific requirements to query a patient’s dispensation history before issuing certain dispensation. With this module, PDMPs are able to identify users, or groups of users, with the lowest rates of compliance, view compliance rates for individual users, see the history of non-compliant searches for each prescriber, and view specific patient and dispensation details.
Furthermore, a prescriber-facing version of the Mandatory Use Module can be made available in AWARxE. This report would be generated based on the user’s Personal DEA in their user profile. In doing so, users would only see dispensation and search activity associated with their own DEA. The report will contain the same output as the PDMP administrator’s Mandatory Use Module reporting for the individual prescribers, with fields configurable by the PDMP administrator to reflect any PDMP-specific rules or exceptions.
Viewing My Mandatory Use Compliance Report
If a prescriber would like to view My Mandatory Use Compliance Report, navigate to Data > Mandatory Use > My Mandatory Use Compliance Report.
Select the month and year (required) for the report, the roles of the prescriber(s) included in the report, and click Generate.
Exemptions to Reviewing
Prescribers may be exempt from reviewing dispensation history. However, this function does not allow filtering by healthcare specialties that may be exempt from reviewing or practice locations that also allow exemptions.
| This functionality is not available to pharmacists, because they do not hold DEA registration numbers and therefore, are not required to review the dispensation history. |
Troubleshooting and Support
If a prescriber is unable to view their report is encountering an error, please contact Bamboo Health's Support Team or open a ticket for further assistance.
For questions on items contained in the Mandatory Use Report or on exemptions to reviewing, please contact the PDMP.
