9.15.2014 Osteoporosis Management in Women Who Had a Fracture Step 4 states to exclude members who received a dispensed prescription or had an active prescription to treat osteoporosis during the 365 days (12 months) prior to the IESD. Define “active prescription.”

 An “active prescription” means that a member has a surplus of medication to take from a prescription dispensed previously. Therefore, in step 4 (required exclusions), the member is excluded if a prescription was dispensed during the 12 months prior to the IESD, or prior to that time frame if the member has remaining pills to take in the 12 months prior to the IESD.
