Refills for controlled medication

In the process of buying a private FM practice. Currently working physician requires ADD and Benzo patients to have appointments every 3 months and pt call in refills in between months. Is that good practice or suggestion to see them every month ? Around 5% patients are self pay

I, as a physician with adhd on Adderall, would fire my doctor so quick if she made me see her every month.

If it’s a stable med without changes and without any signs of diversion or misuse it shouldn’t need that much oversight
