Phar 8.09 (1) For the purpose of authorizing an electronic or oral prescription order for a schedule II controlled substance, the term “emergency” means those situations in which the prescribing practitioner determines that:
(2) In an emergency a pharmacist may dispense a controlled substance listed in schedule II upon receiving electronic or oral authorization of a practitioner if:
(3) If the practitioner is not known to the pharmacist, the pharmacist shall make a reasonable effort to determine that the electronic or oral authorization came from an authorized practitioner, which may include a call back to the prescribing practitioner using the practitioner's phone number as listed in the telephone directory and other good faith efforts to insure the practitioner's identity.
(4) Within 72 hours 7 days after authorizing an emergency electronic or oral prescription order, the practitioner shall cause a written order for the emergency quantity prescribed to be delivered to the dispensing pharmacist. In addition to conforming to the requirements of s. Phar 8.05, the order shall contain on its face “authorization for emergency dispensing” and the date of the electronic or oral order. The written order may be delivered to the pharmacist in person or by mail, but if delivered by mail it shall be postmarked within the 72 hour 7 day period. Upon receipt, the dispensing pharmacist shall attach this prescription order to the electronic or oral emergency order reduced to writing under sub. (2) (b). The pharmacist shall notify the board or department of regulation and licensing if the practitioner fails to deliver the written order. Failure of the pharmacist to provide notification shall void the authority conferred by this section to dispense without a written order of a practitioner.
