Pharmacist must report to BOP ALL controlled losses within what calendar days for employee theft and what calendar days for any other type of loss?

Two different deadlines reflect the level of risk and the source of the loss. If the loss involves employee theft of controlled substances, it signals potential ongoing diversion and a higher security risk, so it must be reported to the Board within 14 calendar days of discovery. For any other type of loss—such as miscounts, breakage, disposal, or losses not caused by an employee—the Board allows 30 calendar days. Remember the clock starts when the loss is discovered, and you count calendar days (weekends and holidays included). Timely reporting is essential to comply with Board rules and to protect public safety.
