18 Part of the Solution: PDMP The PDMP is a tool that provides data that can be used to help address prescription drug abuse, addiction and diversion. The data can help healthcare professionals: evaluate a patient s use of monitored prescription drugs and make more informed decisions support access to legitimate medical use of controlled substances provide better coordination of care to patients seeing multiple professionals identify and treat persons addicted to prescription drugs inform public health initiatives 18

19 How PDMPs Work 1. Pharmacies and other dispensers of monitored prescription drugs collect and submit data to the PDMP. 2. The data is added to a statewide database. 3. Authorized users may obtain PDMP data to verify prescription information. 19

65 Ongoing Enhancements 2014 Enhancements to the PDMP: 1) Integrate PDMP data into the Wisconsin Statewide Health Information Network (WISHIN) and EHR and pharmacy software systems. 2) Provide Unsolicited reports to prescribers and pharmacists. 3) Develop the Public Health Portal 65

66 Public Health Portal Purpose: To give public health officials and other researchers access to de-identified data collected as part of the Prescription Drug Monitoring Program (PDMP). Overview: The PDMP Public Health Portal will be a secure webbased database that authenticated users can query for specific de-identified information about the PDMP. The information will be loaded into the database periodically and will not contain any patient-specific or other personally identifiable information. Example:

67 (Potentially) Forthcoming Changes

68 SB 21- Executive Budget Bill Transfers oversight of the PDMP to the Wisconsin Controlled Substances Board (CSB) Changes the membership of the CSB to include representatives from prescriber boards Gives the CSB new powers: Disclose PDMP information to boards and agencies, including law enforcement, under circumstances of suspicious or critically dangerous conduct Refer non-compliant pharmacies and practitioners to disciplinary boards or law enforcement for investigation and possible prosecution 68
