Which type of prescription can be stored electronically in Oregon?

In Oregon, non-controlled substance prescriptions can be stored electronically. The legal framework governing the storage of prescriptions allows for the electronic storage of records for non-controlled substances without the same stringent restrictions that apply to controlled substances.

Controlled substance prescriptions have specific regulatory requirements, including more stringent storage and record-keeping mandates. As a result, storing such prescriptions electronically may not be permissible unless they comply with those particular regulations and standards.

While it might seem plausible to consider that all prescriptions can be stored electronically, only non-controlled substances have the clear allowance for electronic storage under state regulations without additional compliance measures. This ensures that the specific monitoring and control needed for controlled substances remains intact while also facilitating efficiency in managing non-controlled prescriptions through electronic systems.

Thus, the correct answer reflects the specific allowance for non-controlled substances to be managed via electronic systems in accordance with Oregon's pharmacy laws.
