I would like to give my full support on the delivery of schedule VI drugs to be placed in automated dispensing devices.  As a recipient of this process through the pilot program, I see the benefit that it provides to facilities for several reasons.  As we are all experiencing unprecedented staffing shortages, having a standardized, reliable process for refilling of our ADDs that decreases the amount of time that is taken away from our facility staff is invaluable.  Also, the environment that the medications are being refilled in to be delivered to the facilities is focused on this process which provides for a more focused and uninterrupted workflow which decreases errors in refilling.  Lastly, the ability of the supplier (warehouse) to supply JIT and decrease the amount of medication that the facility needs to purchase and stock, and potential waste and expire, is fiscally responsible.  The thought and structure that has been put into this pilot should be allowed to be considered standard practice if not best practice.
