Wow, a lot of tension on this issue.
However, if you prescribe any DEA regulated medication, you must and are required to care about drug diversion.
Look at your DEA registration. Not only does it give you the legal privledge to write for controlled drugs ,it REQUIRES you to suspect, report, and ACT on possible diversion. It's like the DEA can use you as a non-paid investigator.
If you don't like it, surrender your DEA and complain all you want. BUT that's how it is.
In my area there are four (4) federal agents assigned to prescription drug diversion. Thats the whole state of Georgia. We all know the federal government is FUBAR, but in this area they actually need our help.
