What exception exists for the general rule against faxing M3P prescriptions?

  1. If the prescriber is a veterinarian

  2. During public health emergencies

  3. For buprenorphine or methadone prescriptions in opioid replacement therapy

  4. There are no exceptions; faxing is always prohibited

The correct answer is: For buprenorphine or methadone prescriptions in opioid replacement therapy

There is a general rule against faxing M3P prescriptions. However, there is an exception for buprenorphine or methadone prescriptions in opioid replacement therapy. This is because these types of medications are often used for patients who are struggling with addiction and may need immediate access to their medication. Faxing the prescription allows for quicker access and can help prevent relapses or other potential complications. The other options, such as the prescriber being a veterinarian or during public health emergencies, do not have an exception for faxing M3P prescriptions and would still be subject to the general rule against faxing. Additionally, option D, stating there are no exceptions, is incorrect as there is at least one exception for certain medications used in opioid replacement therapy.
