After much political wrangling and lobbying, in 2009, Florida enacted the Electronic-Florida Online Reporting of Controlled Substances Evaluation (E-FORCSE), currently codified in Section 893.055, Florida Statutes. More often, it is referred to simply as the prescription drug monitoring program (PDMP) by Florida physicians. Since the beginning, the PDMP has been plagued with issues ranging from funding, patient privacy concerns and the legal uses of the database.
