Comment on How Hackers Dox Doctors to Order Mountains of Oxy and Adderall
ShunkW@lemmy.world 9 months agoI didn’t consider existing orders vs a one time prescription making a difference in my case. It also could just be my provider and others in my area - my friend who goes through another hospital system here for scheduled drugs has had to go through paper prescriptions if there wasn’t already a refill on record.
I guess each system is handling it the way they see fit.

That would make sense. I believe you have to enroll the patient into the efill system which makes sense when it’ll be done often, but for a one-off, may as well save the paperwork and write it on a script pad.

Well I had this same medicine sent over electronically a couple months prior. The doctor I saw told me this was the reason they would only give me a paper script this time around.
