What is the success rate of PDMP requests?

Unfortunately, integrated PDMP is not a perfect process - clicking "View PDMP data" does not always return the information requested. The general return rate varies based on who is returning the information.  DrFirst sends patient demographics to the state or PDMP service provider and the state/service provider uses those demographics to determine if they have a patient that matches those demographics. If they do, they will return the data. If not, an error message is returned.

  • All service providers and states other than CA (CURES): general patient success rate of around 80-90%
  • CA: 40-50% success rate (NOTE: DrFirst states efforts are continually being made to improve this)
