AUSTIN (AP) - State law-
makers looking for ways to com-
bat prescription drug abuse are
poised to propose that doctors
be encouraged to use online
databases identifying patients
who “doctor shop” for medica-
tions, according to a pubbshed
report Thursday.
The Austin American
Statesman says some legislators
have supported mandating that
physicians use monitoring data-
bases, but that bills simply urg-
ing them to do so are more likely
when the Legislature recon-
venes Jan. 13.
The databases are designed
to flag patients who visit multi-
ple doctors in hopes of stockpil-
ing prescription drugs.
period for prescribing violations
involving two or more patients
were prosecuted.
Rep. Elliott Naishtat, vice
chairman of the House Public
Health Committee, said he
could “guarantee” there would
be discussion on the topic.
‘An atmosphere has been
created in Texas and other
states, an atmosphere of reluc-
tance to, in a broad way, subject
doctors and lawyers to criminal
prosecutions,” said Naishtat, an
Austin Democrat.
But Texas Medical Associa-
tion President Austin King said
that overreach by the medical
board — not lax punishment —
may be to blame for so few pros-
ecutions.
Texas House and Senate
committees that examined ways
to limit prescription drug abuse
agree that Texas should interac-
tively share its drug monitoring
database with other states.
Discussion ahead of the up-
coming session didn’t focus on
punishing doctors who violate
prescription regulations. That
may change, however, in the
wake of a previous Statesman
story that found that such prose-
cutions are unusual and are of-
ten not even considered by au-
thorities.
The newspaper reported in
another story pubbshed Sunday
that fewer than a third of the
doctors punished by the Texas
Medical Board over a three-year
“I think the medical board is
aggressively pursuing a lot of
these doctors,” said King, a head
and neck tumor surgeon in Abi-
lene.

King also said he opposes re-
quiring doctors to use the data-
base: “Physicians are just over-
whelmed by red tape right now.”
The scope of the House Pub-
lic Health Committee’s work is
set by House Speaker Joe Straus.
Jason Embry, a Straus spokes-
man, said the committee’s re-
port will likely be released next
week.
