How long does a dispenser have to correct omissions or inaccuracies in data submitted to the PDMP?

  1. 24 hours

  2. 3 days

  3. 5 days

  4. 7 days

The correct answer is: 24 hours

The other options are incorrect because they exceed the recommended time frame for correction. According to the Implementation Guide for Dispensers, a dispenser should make corrections or omissions in data submitted to the PDMP within 24 hours of discovery. This is important for maintaining accurate and timely data to inform healthcare professionals and policymakers. A longer time frame may lead to delays in identifying potential issues or errors in prescriptions, potentially leading to patient harm. Additionally, a shorter time frame ensures that the dispenser takes prompt action to address any inaccuracies or omissions. Therefore, option A of 24 hours is the correct answer.
