Tennessee Data Collection Manual
Generally, dispensers are required to upload all controlled substance prescriptions daily as Tennessee Code Section 53-1 0-305(b)(2) requires a controlled substance prescription upload “each business day but no later than the close of business on the following business day.”
Bamboo Health (formally Appriss Health) currently is the contracted vendor to assist all state of Tennessee dispensers in the upload and inclusion of their prescriptions into the CSMD database. For dispensers, information on uploading prescription data may be obtained from Bamboo Health at 866-683-9771. Additionally, the TN Data Collection Manual may be viewed and printed to ensure dispensers have the information necessary to be compliant with TN reporting requirements.
