What additional measure must a prescriber take for an e-prescription if it was not received by the intended pharmacy?

Cancel the prescription
Call the pharmacy to confirm
Send a new prescription indicating prior transmission facts
Report to the DEA

The correct answer is: Send a new prescription indicating prior transmission facts

A) Canceling the prescription would require the prescriber to start the e-prescribing process all over again. This is unnecessary since the original prescription was not received by the intended pharmacy. B) Calling the pharmacy to confirm the status of the prescription may take additional time and may not guarantee that the prescription will be received. It is important to take a more proactive step. D) Reporting to the DEA may not be necessary since the prescription was not received by the intended pharmacy. It may only be necessary to take this step if there is suspicion of fraudulent activity. The best option in this situation is to send a new prescription with the correct transmission information. This will ensure that the prescription is properly received and processed by the intended pharmacy. It is also important to contact the intended pharmacy to inform them about the new prescription in case there are any further issues.
