NABP Developing System to Link PMPs Across States to Facilitate Data Exchange
In response to an expressed need by prescription monitoring program (PMP) administrators for a way to facilitate the sharing and exchanging of data among PMP systems, NABP will be developing an interconnected communications hub for state PMPs. The “interconnect hub,” which will be operational in nine months, will be made accessible to the states at little or no cost in order to help further the protection of the public health – a mission shared by the state boards of pharmacy and NABP.
Once the system is in place, authorized clients will log in to their PMP as usual and make requests for information from other participating PMPs through the interconnect hub 24 hours a day. The interconnect hub will facilitate the completion of the data request so that clients can quickly obtain the data they need to identify possible prescription drug abuse and diversion. The interconnect hub will also enforce each program’s access rules to ensure only authorized and appropriate access to information. Used only to facilitate the communications process, the interconnect hub will retain no prescription data and all PMP data will remain resident with the PMP.
More information is available in an NABP news release.
