Stolen and forged prescriptions

Note:

• The information shown in the Organisation list detailss organisations where prescriptions have been stolen from hospitals and similar establishments, which could include any doctors’ details.
• The second list details practitioners in alphabetical order of their surnames.
• Fraudulent computer-generated prescriptions are identified in the right-hand (fifth) column by the initials 'CGP'.
• If you can't change your settings to view the right-hand column of the table, there is a slide bar located at the bottom of the table.
• Most of the prescriptions relate to medical practitioners but there are occasional reports that relate to prescriptions from other practitioners. References to dentists, veterinary practitioners and nurse practitioners (if any) are shown after given names.
• A separate table was previously included to show clinic details, which were pre-printed by Medicare Australia on the back of computer-generated prescription pages, but this has not occurred for some time so this table is no longer included.
