Re: List of States Allowing Physician Delegation of PDMP Access
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

In response to your request regarding a physician's ability to delegate prescription drug monitoring program (PDMP) check responsibilities, the
following information is provided.

Response:
After review, state laws typically do not express the qualifications required for an individual to be defined as a delegate/designate of the
practitioner. In general, all states allow for practitioners/prescribers to delegate/designate another individual to access the states prescription
drug monitoring program (PDMP) databases on their behalf. The description of who can be appointed a delegate/designate was primarily found
in the respective states PDMP frequently asked questions section. The information collected for each state can be found in Table 1 below.
