What are the limitations on what MCOs can audit without specifying prescription numbers?

Any prescriptions within the last year
NTE 25 randomly selected prescriptions, NTE 2 audits/year, must be on-site
Only prescriptions dispensed within the last month
Any prescriptions, as long as the pharmacy has been notified in advance

The correct answer is: NTE 25 randomly selected prescriptions, NTE 2 audits/year, must be on-site

MCOs can only randomy select and audit NTE 25 prescriptions within a year and NTE 2 audits per year. These audits must also be conducted on-site. This means that the other options are incorrect as they do not specify a limit on the number of prescriptions that can be audited or do not require the audits to be conducted on-site. For example, A would allow the MCOs to audit any prescriptions within the last year, which could potentially be a large number. C only limits the audit to prescriptions dispensed within the last month, which is a shorter period of time than the correct answer. D does not provide any limitations or restrictions on the number or location of audits. Therefore, B is the most accurate and appropriate answer.
