Physician prescibing large amounts of vicodin to daughter
My question is very simple yet I have been unable to find a definitive answer anywhere. I am hoping someone here can help. I personally know a very respected physician who prescribed large amounts(100 tabs of 10/325 vicodin) per month to his daughter. This was done on numerous occasions throughout the year. This same physician then instructed his daughter to split the vicodin with his wife. I also know for a fact that this same physician prescribed expensive medications to himself, had his insurance pay for it then gave the medication to family members because they could not afford them. What agencies oversee physicians on their prescription pratices, can this physician get into any trouble for these practices and how do I reach these agencies? Any and all factual advice and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
