DSCSA product tracing — the 3Ts

Claim

Under the Drug Supply Chain Security Act, trading partners exchange transaction information, transaction history, and a transaction statement (the 3Ts) when ownership of a covered prescription product changes hands.

Plain

Think TI + TH + TS with every handoff of ownership. Dispensing to a patient is not that handoff. Federal floor; verify current FDA phase-in for your role.
