Current through all regulations passed and filed through July 1, 2024
(A)
								As used in this rule, "hospital or other institution"
			 has the same meaning as in Part 1301 of the Code of Federal
			 Regulations.
(B)
								A prescriber who is an agent or employee of a hospital
			 or other institution may, when acting in the normal course of business or
			 employment, administer, personally furnish, or prescribe controlled substances
			 under the "Drug Enforcement Administration" (D.E.A.) registration of the
			 hospital.
(C)
								A person pursuing an approved training program within
			 the jurisdiction of the hospital or other institution and authorized to write
			 prescriptions pursuant to paragraph (B) of rule
			 4729:5-1-02
			 of the Administrative Code may administer, personally furnish, or prescribe
			 controlled substances under the registration of the hospital or other
			 institution. Persons pursuing such approved training programs may function in
			 sites outside the physical confines of the hospital or other institution only
			 if such sites are part of the training program and the persons are under the
			 employment and jurisdiction of the hospital or other institution administering
			 the approved program. While functioning in the outside sites, such persons may
			 continue to use the internal code assigned by the hospital or other institution
			 administering the approved program, upon mutual agreement of the hospital or
			 other institution and the outside site.
(D)
								The
			 administering, personally furnishing, or prescribing must be done in the usual
			 course of the person's professional practice and only within the scope of the
			 person's employment in the hospital or other institution.
(E)
								Each person so
			 authorized must be assigned a specific internal code number by the hospital or
			 other institution which will be used as a suffix to the hospital D.E.A.
			 registration number. Such internal code number shall consist of numbers,
			 letters, or a combination thereof, shall be preceded by a hyphen, and no more
			 than ten characters in length, excluding the hyphen. A current list of the
			 internal codes and the corresponding individual prescribers must be kept by the
			 hospital or other institution and made available at all times to other
			 registrants, state board of pharmacy designated agents, investigators of the
			 state medical board, and federal, state, county, or municipal law enforcement
			 agencies for verification.
A current list of internal codes and
				the corresponding individual prescribers shall be filed with the state board of
				pharmacy, in a manner and format determined by the board. Additions, deletions
				or changes to the list must be submitted to the state board of pharmacy within
				ten business days of any such addition, deletion or change.
(F)
								A
			 pharmacist practicing under a consult agreement, as authorized in section
			 4729.39 of the Revised Code,
			 shall not prescribe controlled substances under the registration of the
			 hospital or other institution.
