From: Natalie St. John
To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the Washington Public Records Act, I hereby request the following records:
Any and all correspondence, including emails, texts, letters and communications sent via messaging services between any member of your staff and any of the following:
Dr. Gary Franklin (Medical director at LNI, researcher at UW)
Dr. Andrew Kolodny
Dr. Jane Ballantyne
Dr. Michael Von Korff
Dr. Rosemary Orr
Dr. Steven Gelfand
Dr. Irfan Dhalla
Dr. Pete Jackson
Dr. David Jurrlink
Dr. Petros Levounis
Dr. Leonard "Len" Paulozzi
Dr. Jon Streltzer
Dr. Art Van Zee
Betts Tully
William/Bill Rummler
Judy Rummler
PROP/Physicians for Responsible Opioid Prescribing
SRHF/Steve Rummler Hope Foundation
Steve Rummler Hope Network
Agency Medical Directors Group
This should include all communications in which any of the above mentioned parties is a sender, recipient, or is carbon-copied.
The time frame for this request should be June 1, 2006 to May 31, 2021. Given the large amount of time this request covers, I would be glad to receive the responsive documents in installments. If you have deleted earlier documents due to your retention schedule, please provide responsive records for whatever part of that time period exists, and indicate which records are no longer available.
It may be helpful for you to know that Dr. Franklin and the others listed below are not DOC employees, but may have consulted or communicated with DOC staff. They are all affiliated through the two anti-opioid nonprofits listed at the bottom, PROP and SRHF. Dr. Franklin is a member of the state’s Agency Medical Directors’ Group, a coalition of state agency medical directors (including the medical director for DOC) who work together to write and periodically revise the state’s opioid prescribing guidelines for doctors who serve state-funded patients, such as DOC inmates, Medicaid recipients and workers’ comp recipients. As such, Dr. Franklin likely has had contact with your medical directors during the above specified timeline. The other people in the list may have communicated either with your medical director(s) and their staffs concerning prescribing policy, or with staff at DOC in charge of gathering and evaluating data related to opioid addiction and treatment for DOC inmates and people under DOC supervision.
Please be advised that I conduct all of my PDR requests through Muckrock.com, and all communications will be routed to me through that portal. I check it regularly, so if. I can offer further clarification or be of assistance in any other way, please feel welcome to reach out.
The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.
I authorize fees of up to $300, but respectfully ask that fees be waived, as this is a public service journalism project. If fees will exceed that amount, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available, by thumb-drive, or as a last choice, as paper copies. I do not have the ability to view CD-roms or DVDs.
Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 5 business days, as the statute requires.
Sincerely,
Natalie St. John
From: Department of Corrections

Hi there Tonja,
I am having trouble accessing installments five and six. For all the others, I can download them directly from MuckRock, but I can't with 5 and 6. I tried visiting the GovQa website, but I don't see a way to create an account, and I don't see any info in our correspondence about how I would access these requests in GovQa even if I was able to create an account.
Could you possibly make them available directly through MuckRock, like the others?
I'm sorry for the trouble.
Thank you,
Natalie St. John

Ms. St. John:
We are unable to upload records to outside sites. I have reset the customer setting on installment 5 and 6, if you are still unable to download these installments, please let me know so I can get some technical support. Due to the size of the installments of this request I am unable to email the records to you. If you prefer not to receive the records through the GovQA portals I can send you a cost letter for the records to be put on a CD and mailed to you.

Tonja Monroe, Public Records Specialist

Hi Tonja,
I still don't understand how I'm supposed to access them. As I said in my previous letter, there doesn't appear to be a way to create an account on the GovQA website, and unless I've overlooked something, you haven't given me an access code or whatever I would need to find these records even if I did have an account. How am I supposed to access them?
Thank you,
Natalie

--- Please respond above this line ---
Ms. St. John:
We are unable to upload records to outside sites. It is my understanding that in order to view records uploaded to our records portal or to send messages through the portal you have to have an account. According to the history of this request you accessed and viewed both installment 5 and installment 6 along with their corresponding denial logs at 1:30 this morning, October 3, 2022, at the same time you sent me correspondence from the request. GovQA does have a customer FAQ section that may provide some additional assistance that can be found at: https://washingtondoc.govqa.us/WEBAPP/_rs/(S(af1vau4hc3serzbesae3qa2p))/FindAnswers.aspx. If you are still having issues then we can set up a video call with our analyst so we can try and help you further or I can send you a cost letter so that you can receive physical copies of the records or electronic copies on a disc.
Sincerely,
Tonja Monroe, Public Records Specialist
From: Natalie St. John
OK, we've made minor progress now that you've provided the website for DOC's GovQA portal — that was the first time I've been provided with that, so I was searching GovQA .com. I've created an account. I'm sorry I have to ask this a third time, but can you PLEASE explain to me how to find the records now that I have an account? There has to be a reference number or code or something. I have only ever accessed records via Muckrock. All the other installments were available directly through Muckrock, so it definitely is possible for you to share them this way. I don't know why these two installments were different, or why your records suggest that I accessed them, but I can assure you I have never before accessed records via the GovQA portal. Please either make these records available as you did the others, or tell me how to get them through the portal. If DOC insists on using a portal system, then DOC should be able to explain how it works.
Thank you,
Natalie

Hi Natalie,
Until today I had personally never accessed the customer side of our portal but I was brainstorming our access problems with your request with a co-worker and I learned I have the ability to view the customer side. I have verified you do have an account this link should take you to it: https://washingtondoc.govqa.us/WEBAPP/_rs/(S(eudnaeolffg5mwmm32ducpq3))/CustomerHome.aspx?sSessionID=1982391197DRESCRJDRQIT[RYYZUXPWZOZHLSQMR<https://washingtondoc.govqa.us/WEBAPP/_rs/(S(eudnaeolffg5mwmm32ducpq3))/CustomerHome.aspx?sSessionID=1982391197DRESCRJDRQIT%5bRYYZUXPWZOZHLSQMR>
Once in your account you can follow these instruction to download your records:
Select "View My Request"
That should open a page that contains this:
Click view file(s) under Public Records Request P021464-061521
From the next screen you can click on any of the file links to download them or scroll down and send messages.
All 9 installment of records and any corresponding denial logs are accessible through that page. I have double-checked to confirm that we are not able to upload the records to a third party site and I am sorry but I can't. I did learn though that some of our other Muckrock requester have advised us in the past that they had staff that would transfer the records for them from our site to yours. It is possible this could be what has caused us confusion with your record access. I hope this helps but if it doesn't please let me know and we will set up a call.

Hi Tonja,
I appreciate your efforts to help me, but I'm afraid a CD would be useless to me. I no longer have any way to play one. All I really need is the instructions on how to access these files through the portal. I'm really sorry - if you ever sent them, I just cannot find them. I've looked. Could you please just send those again?
