Do you think the ability to prescribe controlled substance benefits the Nurse Practitioners practice?

By accessing E-FORCSE database you will avoid multiple healthcare providers re filling narcotics not due, or multiple narcotics to the same patient.   References  Comprehensive Drug Abuse Prevention and Control Act of 1970.
