More than 30 doctors reported to AHPRA for not checking SafeScript software
In May, Coroner Audrey Jamieson said the software 'was not working as intended or not being used'.
Victoria’s Department of Health is referring dozens of doctors to AHPRA each year for failing to check the SafeScript real-time prescription monitoring software, officials have revealed.
SafeScript flags possible signs of doctor-shopping with Victorian prescribers and pharmacists, as part of efforts to curb overdose deaths, and has been mandatory to check since 2020.
