Why It Matters for Diversion Programs

This entry comes from a primary source rather than a federal enforcement release, and it is recorded as reported: dispensed controlled substances pursuant to invalid prescription orders. Board and news records are a lagging indicator - by the time a licensing authority or a reporter learns of a diversion, the diversion was normally detected internally first, which makes each entry a signal that inventory reconciliation, waste observation or dispensing oversight failed earlier.
