The MA is documenting the scripts from the fax refills I get from the pharmacy and only does so after I sign off the forms. I

While it is ideal that folks come in for their refills, they don't for some reason or another, and I'm not one to hold someones insulin or albuterol just to make them come in. If I've not seen them, they get 30 days only with a warning there are no more until I see them.

All narcotics that go out of this office, including C3's are on tamper proof paper. They are not called in. It's rare that anyone gets a refill.

I don't number the tamper proof sheets, but that's a great idea.
