Third Question of the Day July 23, 2014 How many compounding pharmacies and pharmacists are involved in this type of transaction with doctors? Is there a standard contract that all compounding pharmacies are using for say this is "research?" Is someone training or encouraging the compounding industry to do this?

Today, I received a fax titled " Compound cream study".
The fax informs me a study is being done to establish necessary safety level of compound creams so they can be cleared to be electronically pre-authorized.
If you participate in this study you will be paid. if you provide patient education for 100 non medicare patients you will be paid 75,000 dollars.
translation: write for 100 scripts, get a kick back.
likely result: jail time with revocation of license.
They send you a contract informin you - you are a medical director of your office and an independ contractor not affiliated with the pharmacy. You are being paid for your "research".
