Assembly Bill 68 seeks to amend existing statutes related to the prescription drug monitoring program (PDMP) in Wisconsin. The bill extends the requirement for practitioners to review a patient's records under the PDMP before issuing a prescription order from the current expiration date of April 1, 2025, to April 1, 2030. Additionally, it extends the requirement for the Controlled Substances Board to conduct a quarterly review of the PDMP's outcomes from October 30, 2025, to October 30, 2030.

These amendments aim to enhance the monitoring of prescription drug dispensing and ensure that practitioners continue to assess patient records for safer prescribing practices. By extending these deadlines, the bill emphasizes the importance of ongoing evaluation and oversight within the PDMP framework.
