Query of Prescription Drug Monitoring Program (PDMP)

Have the front desk run the formulary check when the patient checks in. A formulary check is valid for only three days. After three days, you’ll need to run a new, up-to-date formulary check. Formulary checking is provided by SureScripts and is available for patients who have an active insurance plan.

1. In Eyefinity EHR on the web, open the patient’s chart.
2. Click the Rx Plans tab.
3. Click Request Rx Plans.

    

   

4. If more than one plan is available, select one and click Set Default.

For at least one Schedule II opioid or Schedule III or IV drug electronically prescribed using a certified EHR during the performance period, the MIPS-eligible clinician uses data from the EHR to conduct a query of a PDMP for prescription drug history.

Threshold

This is a Yes-No measure. The MIPS-eligible clinician must attest YES to conducting a query of a PDMP for at least one Schedule II opioid or Schedule III or Schedule IV drug electronically prescribed using a certified EHR.

Any MIPS-eligible clinician who meets one or more of the following criteria may be excluded from the PDMP measure:

• The clinician is unable to electronically prescribe Schedule II opioids and Schedule III and IV drugs in accordance with applicable law during the performance period.
• The clinician does not prescribe any Schedule II opioids or Schedule III or IV drugs during the performance period.

This measure is optional and unlikely to apply to most eyecare providers. This measure is worth 10 points.

The following are suggested roles for completing this measure:

• Doctor
• Technician

This measure cannot be demonstrated during an audit. Take a screenshot of the ePrescribing page that shows formulary checking is enabled.
