PMP Clearinghouse- this is the website used to upload all required information for drug dispensations.

INSPECT- this website utilizes the information that has been uploaded into the PMP Clearinghouse and stores it as a searchable database. This is the website utilized to query prior to prescribing a controlled substance to ensure there are no “red flags” on the client that may indicate a drug seeking issue.

Prescribing: A registered Physician, Dentist, Veterinarian or any other person licensed by law to prescribe drugs, provides a written order containing instructions for preparation and dispensing to the Pharmacist along with mode of administration for the patient.

Dispensing: The preparation, packaging, labeling, record keeping, and transfer of a prescription drug to a patient or an intermediary, who is responsible for administration of the drug.

The Primary DEA holder within a clinic (the person whose DEA number is used to order all of the controlled substances, will become the “Pharmacy” when submitting information later. The DVM that prescribes/dispenses the drugs will be known as the “Prescriber”. Therefore. if the person that orders the drug under their DEA number is the same person that sends the drug home, they will be listed as both the “Pharmacy” and the “Prescriber”.

ATTENTION: Typically, only one DVM from a clinic needs to register to submit data to the Clearinghouse (which means there is only one clearinghouse account per clinic). The person that should register with the Clearinghouse to submit data is the DVM that orders and maintains the controlled substances for the clinic. Additional DVM’s within the practice that will dispense the controlled substances should be registered as “Users” once the main account is set up. 

Reporting to the Clearinghouse is required.

Prescription data submissions are now being submitted through the Appriss PMP Clearinghouse. Please use the following link: https://pmpclearinghouse.net.

1. Medical Director (Primary DEA holder for the hospital) will need to set up their account FIRST with both INSPECT and the PMP Clearinghouse.
2. Medical Director will access PMP Clearinghouse and assign “Users” (associate DVM’s, or other indicated staff members in the clinic)- This will create an account using the associate DVMs’ email address that can then be accessed by the associate/user.
3. An associate, whose DEA number is NOT being used to order controlled substances for the hospital, should not sign up on their own. If they do, it may prevent them from becoming a “User” under the primary DEA holder for the clinic.
4. When assigning a user, the DEA holder will also create a password for the user. This assignment will be able to later be used in the INSPECT and PMP Clearinghouse websites.
   Associate DVM’s will access and update their accounts. 

Each clinic’s Medical/Hospital Director will need to create an account via INSPECT AND PMP. All other DVM associates will be assigned as “Users” under this account.
