b) Before a dispensing organization agent dispenses medical cannabis to an OAPP participant, the agent shall:

1) Confirm the OAPP participant is in the Illinois Cannabis Tracking System and is authorized by DPH to purchase medical cannabis;

C) Original written certification was submitted in the application and includes the name of the issuing physician;

D) The written certification was issued within 90 days prior to registering in the Opioid Participant Pilot Program; and

E) The start and expiration date the OAPP participant can purchase medical cannabis;

3) Confirm the OAPP participant is not a registered qualifying patient or provisional patient;

4) Verify that the amount of medical cannabis the OAPP participant is requesting would not cause the OAPP participant to exceed the limit of obtaining more than two and one-half ounces of medical cannabis during any 14-calendar day period; and

5) Enter the following information into the Illinois Cannabis Tracking System for the OAPP participant:
A) The dispensing organization agent's identification number;

The notification shall include the date and time of the transaction that caused the overage, the name of the agent-in-charge on duty, the amount of the overage, the OAPP participant's registry identification number, and a detailed narrative of the circumstances surrounding the overage.
