A dispenser may submit a written request for a hardship waiver from the requirement that it transmit prescription information within 24 hours by electronic means as required by paragraphs (a) and (b) of Code Section 16-13-59. The request must explain in detail the nature of the hardship, and propose an alternative method whereby the dispenser will report all prescription information within 24 hours. No request for a waiver will be approved without sufficient proof that compliance would impose an undue hardship upon the dispenser, meaning that it lacks sufficient financial resources to arrange for electronic transmission on its own or by arrangement with a third party.
