Imagine how this would play out at a MEDCEN?

There’s a pharmacy in the White House — or, at least, there’s a sign that says “Pharmacy,” though the people in charge insist it isn’t one. Whatever they call it, the office has had enough internal complaints to warrant a government watchdog investigation.
And its findings were hardly encouraging:
White House pharmacy had ‘improper medical practices,’ report finds
The report said a lack of oversight contributed to the bad practices.

The White House has a pharmacy — and it was a mess, a new investigation found
The White House pharmacy was doling out drugs without much regard for pharmacy rules and regulations, according to a new investigation.

And its findings were hardly encouraging:
- One former pharmacy staff member told investigators that a doctor once asked if the staffer could “hook up” someone with a controlled substance “as a parting gift for leaving the White House.”
- The office dispensed controlled medications like Ambien and Provigil without verifying the patient’s identity.
- It let people grab over-the-counter medicines from open bins.
- And upwards of $640,000 in taxpayer funds were wasted in just three years, though that number is fuzzy, because so many records were poorly kept and even handwritten.
