Pharmacists and prescribers in Nebraska are now required to enter all prescriptions into the Prescription Drug Monitoring Program database, not just controlled or commonly abused substances. Nebraska is the first US state to require daily logging of all prescription drugs, allowing doctors and pharmacists to get complete medication histories for patients. Although entering prescriptions will be required, there is no requirement that doctors and pharmacists consult the system before writing or dispensing prescriptions. Only 23.7% of prescribers and dispensers were registered to use the system as of December 2017. The addition of all prescriptions is adding almost 110,000 records a day to the database, 10 and 1/2 times what was being entered before the change.
