As required in DHS 107.10(3)(c), Wis. Admin. Code, when a prescription is for a BMN drug, the prescriber is required to write "brand
medically necessary" in his or her own handwriting. This required statement may be handwritten either directly on the prescription or on
a separate order attached to the original prescription. Typed certification, signature stamps, or certification handwritten by someone
