I speak in favor of amending 18VAC85-50-160.  

As PAs, we have our hold  license, DEA, and NPI.  There should be no reason to require a collaborating physician's name on a prescription.

To the best of my knowledge, PAs are the only prescribers in Virginia who are required to have this requirement.  There is no evidence that harm has occurred or will occur should the collaborating physician’s name not appear on PA prescriptions.
