Thank you for your inquiry. Back in 2017 the membership of NCPDP harmonized the prescribing and pharmacy billing requirements resulting in the sunsetting of 32 quantity unit of measure values. In the Script Implementation Recommendations document there is information about these changes. If you look in Section 13 of the document, there is some background information and section 13.1 contains a table showing how the sunset code values are to be reported.

If you have any additional questions do not hesitate to ask.


Thanks
