Where I get lost is something about a form being notarized?
I'm sure you're downloading a form from their site promising not to obtain meds elsewhere, these are indeed your records you're submitting, etc.

And by who?
By any Notary Public - you've probably never used one before so haven't noticed all sorts of small businesses advertise Notary Publics, insurance agencies, lawyers offices, UPS Stores, any number of small businesses. Type notary public your town your state into Google, you'll come up with a bunch.
All the Notary Public has to is see your id, then watch you sign the form then s/he will stamp it "Notarized by .....". The Notary Public doesn't care what the form is for, won't even look, just has to verify that you are indeed the person signing it. In fact, I recall one Notary Public answering this same question on the board who said "I don't care if you're signing a pact with the devil, as long as I see you sign it".
It's just a simple CYA thing this OCS is using to show they're trying to weed out fraud. Not everyone is honest!

Also, what were to happen if I were to be in a horrible accident? Would it come up that I have scripts of 90 to 120 pills being filled?
Well if you were in a horrible accident and there was reason to believe you were at fault, a drug screen may be done. If you test positive you may have some trouble on your hands whether you got them from your PCP or this OCS.
If you were shown to be impaired, the source of your medication, which is legal either way.
Under that circumstance, whether you were impaired because you got them from an OCS vs. your PCP won't have much bearing on your case's outcome. Showing you had a legal Rx (OCS or PCP) in most states could slightly help your circumstances slightly. You're biggest problem by far would be driving while impaired. You let your lawyer do the talking then, whatever the source. Personally, I'd be far more worried about the results of the horrible accident! Getting your Rx from the OCS would be a minor aggrevating factor, at most, in this worst case scenario you're conjuring up.
----
I was hospitalized on an emergency basis with mystifying symptoms. They did a drug screen because they were confounded by my sudden paralysis from the neck down (Rare, rare form of MD, controllable, comes and goes) and 2 docs came in just a bit accusingly and said "we found Vicodin in your system". I described my back problems in detail and said I have an Rx for it and it's called Lortab, not Vicodin. They hadn't heard of Lortab. They only seem to know Vicodin up here  That was the end of it at the time. They didn't care who I got the Rx from. It wasn't like I could walk home and get it 
Keep in mind, I have druggie written all over me. I suspect they were expecting to find something more exciting 
For 2 days, they wouldn't even give me anything to sleep. The pain was worse than ever, not even being able to shift positions. They said they had to see me "neurologically intact" for 48 hours. Plausible considering they had never seen a case of what's called HKPP.
After 48 hours, they dug up some Lortab and kept me as comfortable as possible for the remainder of my stay.
Unless you're on parole or something, that's your worst case scenario unless you're driving around impaired, in which case that's by far the major problem.
I won't get much into the secondary issue of any opiate remaining in your system for roughly 3 days. An aggressive prosecutor could make a big deal out of that if they so chose. A ferry boat captain here was taking Tramadol (presumably prescribed by a PCP) and fell asleep as the ferry approached the dock. The collision resulted in 11 fatalities. He fled to his home and unsuccessfully tried to blow his brains out. He got a couple of years in prison. He presumably wasn't popping the Tramadol while he piloted the ferry, but this was such a horrific tragedy, someone had to pay.
----
So basically, try to avoid the "horrible accident" and be more worried about not "operating heavy machinery" and all that while taking any anxiety or strong pain med. And the notary business is as simple a making a checking account deposit.
You have nothing to worry about on either count.
-----
BTW, as a rule, don't carry pain or anxiety meds while you drive, even if they're from your PCP. Except for the trip from the pharmacy or Fedex, whichever applies. That's unavoidable
If you do and get searched by the cops, say you don't take drugs, you were wearing someone else's pants (Lindsey Lohan after her arrest) who must have left a bag of cocaine in them. Don't these people talk to lawyers before coming up with these "alibis"?

Hi-
Has anyone in Indiana used this service yet? I love the concept of this but I still have a few questions....1st, I am to fax my medical records and ID in, and then I will be called to schedule a consult. Am I correct so far? Where I get lost is something about a form being notarized? And by who?
Also, what were to happen if I were to be in a horrible accident? Would it come up that I have scripts of 90 to 120 pills being filled? My regular doctor knows I obtain medication from an outside source so I don't have to visit him monthly since I can't afford this, but could this result in problems If I needed treatment?
Can Anyone answer these questions for me?? PLEASE!!! Thanks
D
Hi Princessd,
Thank You to Patient2all for answering most of your questions. It always good to hear from board members on those subjects.
As far as the notarized form, Patient2all hit on the head.
You can find the form at www.myeasyconsult.com under Notarized Form.
If you have any other questions, please let me know.
Thank You
Have a Great Day!

Getting a re-consult takes another 4 days - not sure why. So just be prepared when you order again the it's a 4 or 5 day process - I was surprised when they told me that.
As far as the reconsult goes, it is the same process as when you receive your initial consult.
If you records need updating, we need to receive them and then we schedule your reconsult for you. From there it is the same process as before.
We are scheduling the reconsults though so that the patient does not run out of medication and they receive their prescriptions a few days before they should be running out.
So once you have your consult for your reconsult, you will have your prescription in hand within three business days. And again, you should not have any lapse in medication with your reconsult.
Hope this clears up the reconsult process.
Have a Great Day!

Bruce,
I did not see a list of medications that your physicians provide. Can they rx hydrocodone 10/325? It'sw what I usually take, but my other service provider is having major difficulty in getting orders out the door in under 2 weeks. Is there anything special that I should know about your service that is better or sets you apart from everyone else? Hi suezq1st, We provide you with a prescription that you have filled at your local pharmacy. The process normally takes three business days once you have had your consult. We send the prescription to you via FedEx COD. If you have any other questions, please let me know. Thank You
