A. A healthcare provider who prescribes medical aid in dying medication to an individual must fully complete the designated online form as soon as possible but in no case later than 30 days of issuing the prescription. The submitted form will be assigned a number for administrative purposes, and the form number will be sent to the healthcare provider who completed the designated form. The current version of the medical aid in dying reporting forms will be available for completion on the department website.

B. If after making reasonable efforts within 30 days of issuing the prescription, the healthcare provider is not aware of whether the prescription has been ingested, or if the prescription has not yet been ingested, the provider must complete the designated online form and mark either "not yet ingested" or "unknown".

C. If a healthcare provider marks "not yet ingested" or "unknown" on the form, the healthcare provider must update that information online using the number assigned on the original form within 6 months of issuing the prescription. "Unknown" will not be accepted on the updated form. The department will send a reminder to the healthcare provider if an update has not been provided within 4 months of the initial online form submission.
