What is the first action to take if an ONYSRx form is lost or stolen?

When an ONYSRx form is lost or stolen, the first action to take is to notify the New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) immediately. This is crucial because the NYSDOH is responsible for overseeing the management and distribution of prescription forms within the state. Reporting the loss allows them to take necessary steps, such as monitoring for any fraudulent use of the forms or potentially issuing a replacement if needed.

Timely notification helps maintain the integrity of the prescription system and ensures that proper procedures are followed to mitigate any risks associated with the loss of the forms. Keeping the NYSDOH informed is a critical part of adhering to regulatory compliance within prescription management, thereby enhancing patient safety and security.
