Responding to the need for a way to facilitate information sharing among prescription-monitoring programs (PMPs), the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy (NABP) will be developing a communications hub for state PMPs.
Once the system is in place, authorized clients will log in to their PMP and request information from other participating PMPs through the interconnect hub. The hub will facilitate the completion of the information request so that clients can quickly obtain what they need to identify possible prescription drug abuse and diversion. The hub will enforce each program's access rules to ensure that there is only authorized access to the information.
