Ambulatory / Retail Pharmacy CS Indication for Use

Hey all,

Wanted to see if anyone else has encountered retail / ambulatory pharmacies requesting indication for use / ICD 10 codes / Diagnosis for controlled substances. We've started receiving this request locally and have been informed that some of the major retail chains may have implemented new policies requiring it.

Has anyone encountered this? If so, what have you done to help reduce the number of calls from retail pharmacies for clarifications?

Any info would be appreciated!
