The RxSentry Prescription Monitoring Program (PMP) controlled substance prescription database went "live" on April 15, 2010, and the PMP database is now available to licensed prescribers and pharmacists approved for access to the PMP to look up patient profile information on patients that they are currently treating.

The purpose of the PMP is to promote public health and welfare by detecting diversion, abuse, and misuse for the prescription medications classified as controlled substances under the Minnesota statutes. For more information about PMP, please review the FAQs (and other menu items) at: www.pmp.pharmacy.state.mn.us/faq.html

To apply for access to this database, you may go to the PMP web site at www.pmp.pharmacy.state.mn.us, click on “Access Request Forms”, print the “Prescriber Access Request” form and follow the instructions provided to request the needed access.

The Minnesota Board of Dentistry announces that an historic milestone was reached on Friday, August 13, 2010. At a special meeting of the Board, there was a unanimous vote to approve provisional approval of the Dental Therapy programs at the University of Minnesota and at Metropolitan State University. Both programs have had student cohorts recently complete their first year of training to prepare to become the first Dental Therapists in the country.

Congratulations to both programs, as well as to the students who are pioneering this new and exciting dental profession.

For more information on Dental Therapist Licensure

A law passed by the 2009 Minnesota Legislature, initiated by the Minnesota Office of Enterprise Technology (OET), requires a 10% surcharge of no less than $5 and no more than $150 on each business, commercial, professional or occupational license. The OET will establish a statewide “one stop” electronic licensing system with the money collected.

Initially, the Board of Dentistry absorbed the OET surcharge for licensees, but is no longer able to absorb this cost based on budget reductions and projections. Paper and online renewal and initial license fees will be assessed the OET surcharge until June 30, 2015.

Questions regarding the OET surcharge or OET’s e-Licensing project may be directed to OET at 651.296.8888 or your Legislator.
