By when must the supplier report a transaction to the DEA when using a paper DEA 222 form?

Within 2 business days of filling the order
By the end of the month during which the order was filled
Within 1 business day of receiving the order
Within 30 days of filling the order

The correct answer is: Within 2 business days of filling the order

The correct answer highlights the requirement for a supplier to report transactions involving controlled substances when using a paper DEA 222 form. According to federal regulations, suppliers must report these transactions to the DEA within two business days after filling the order. This timeframe ensures that the DEA maintains an accurate record of controlled substance movements and can monitor for potential misuse or illegal distribution. The reporting process is critical for maintaining compliance with the Controlled Substances Act and helps the DEA track substance handling across the supply chain. Timely reporting is important to forestall any potential diversion of controlled substances and to uphold the integrity of pharmaceutical distribution. Understanding this requirement is essential for anyone involved in the procurement and distribution of controlled substances.
