Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Reporting to PDMPs - August 2020
The Veterans Health Administration is the largest integrated health care system in the United States, providing health care and pharmacy services to over nine million veterans and processing over 120 million outpatient prescriptions per year. Inclusion of the VA prescription information in the nation’s PDMPs is vitally important in reducing the rate of potential misuse and abuse prescription drugs among the veteran population.
At this webinar, representatives from the VA will discuss:
- Processes for reporting information to the PDMPs
- Potential issues in data reporting
- Efforts to remedy the issues
