Relates to analysis of data in the prescription monitoring program registry
This bill requires New York's Department of Health to periodically analyze data in the state's prescription monitoring program registry. It directs the department to identify potential violations, such as inappropriate prescribing of controlled substances, and share relevant information with appropriate agencies while maintaining detailed records of all disclosures. The law mandates that the department document specific information shared, the recipient agency, and confirm the recipient's authority to receive the data. This applies directly to the Department of Health and the agencies receiving the analyzed data. The provision modifies existing law to formalize this analytical duty and transparency requirement.
