NCPDP members voted to sunset the DAW A value in May 2025. You can read more about this at https://phslrx.com/daw-a-update/.

Ahead of this change, PHSL did not see evidence of DAW A implementation and asked in the monthly poll when readers expected to see the DAW A code implemented. As we know now, the missing option of “Never” would be the correct answer. However, these are the responses that were provided.

Already seeing DAW A: 17%

Second quarter of 2025: 0%

Second half of 2025: 67%

Not until 2026: 17%
