National Clearinghouse on Internet Prescribing (NCIP)
The National Clearinghouse on Internet Prescribing (NCIP) collects information on "rogue" Internet pharmacy websites (those that allow consumers to obtain prescription medications without an evaluation by a physician) and disseminates this information to state and federal regulatory authorities.
The NCIP was established in September 2000 within the FSMB as a result of a meeting of state and federal regulatory authorities and pharmaceutical industry representatives to discuss the challenges associated with the regulation of prescribing and dispensing of medications via the Internet.
