New law about Doc's and Scripts
My HRT clinic just informed me they passed a new law today which states all prescriptions must be made by a doctor who sees you in person. This affects many people on HRT. Especially if your HRT clinic is out of state! Just thought I'd give you All a heads up. This is the last day before the law is enacted so hurry up and refill those scripts.

Don't know about international but if the docs in say Texas and you live in California you must go to the docs office in TX to get a script.

Stupid.

My doc just told me that he can no longer fax over a script for test and that the law requires you bring the pharmacy a signed script in person.

Actually pharmacies are required to have an orginal signed copy by most state laws. Even a fax is techically not good enough. However it isn't enforced and even a digital siginture on scripts(by docs who do electric scripts)isn't techically good enough if push went to shove.

This is a couple years old. The guy wasn't ordering blood work or a 3rd party doctor visit.
I would like to see documentation that a Doctor can't write a prescription without an office visit, when he has a 3rd party doctor do blood work and a physical exam.

Dale L. Taylor, M.D., Revocation of Registration, 72 Fed. Reg. 30855 (June 4, 2007)
On February 2, 2007, DEA issued an Order to Show Cause to Respondent as to why his registration should not be revoked and immediately suspended his registration on the ground that continued registration posed a danger to the public health and safety. The Order alleged that beginning in May 2004, Respondent engaged in the distribution of controlled substances over the Internet with three different entities. When asked to surrender his DEA registration, Respondent refused and indicated that he planned to continue to issue prescriptions over the Internet. Respondent did not respond to the Order to Show Cause or request a hearing.
Respondent reviewed the medical records provided by the patient, talked to the patient on the telephone about his medical needs and prescribed the requested controlled substances. During this transaction, no physical examination was conducted, no medical tests were ordered, and no patient record was established. No doctor-patient relationship was established and, thus, Respondent acted outside the "usual course of professional practice" and without a legitimate medical purpose. Between July 2006 and January 2007, Respondent authorized 6,069 prescriptions for 1,098 persons. Although Respondent was only licensed to practice medicine in Florida, his online prescriptions provided controlled substances to customers in forty-six states and the District of Columbia.
Respondent’s history of dispensing controlled substances in violation of the Controlled Substances Act and state law, failure to maintain patient records, and drug dealing behavior constituted conduct that threatened public health and safety. Consequently, DEA revoked Respondent’s registration because continued registration was inconsistent with the public interest. 21 U.S.C. §§ 823(f) and 824(a)(4).
