Dear Listserv Members,

Fred Cassera, Director of Pharmacy at Maimonides Medical Center has the 
following question for the listserv:

With the advent of e-prescribing, there are some issues that are arising that 
need to be addressed and perhaps standardized.  I'm inquiring about the suffix 
(numeric code) that hospitals assign to residents and other prescribers that is 
intended to be used in conjunction with the institutional  DEA number.


1.      How many integers in the suffix?

2.      Does it contain both number and letters?

3.      Is the suffix  recycled and if so how often?

4.      Have you considered using the employee's ID number as the suffix which 
many be as long as 7 digits.

Please respond through the listserv.

Thank you
