What is the maximum number of prescription claims an audit may examine?

100 prescriptions
150 prescriptions
200 prescriptions
250 prescriptions

The correct answer is: 150 prescriptions

The maximum number of prescription claims that an audit may examine is set to ensure that audits remain manageable for both pharmacy operations and regulatory compliance. In Rhode Island, regulations specify that an audit may review up to 150 prescription claims. This limit is designed to provide a balance, allowing auditors to effectively assess compliance without putting excessive strain on pharmacy resources or disrupting their operations significantly. Setting a cap at 150 claims enables a thorough review of the pharmacy's practices, while also recognizing the practicalities of pharmacy management. A number higher than this could lead to an overly burdensome audit process, while a lower number might not capture enough data to provide a sufficient understanding of the pharmacy’s compliance and operational practices. Understanding these audit limits helps in preparing effective pharmacy management strategies to ensure adherence to legal requirements and maintaining patient care standards.
