INFORMATION

So glad to see our pharmacists, technicians, and interns that were able to attend Pharmacy Day at the Capitol on February 9th, 2022.

Highlights of week 4:

  • New! We recommend members take a look at the newest pharmacy-related bill for the legislative session - House Bill 308 - this bill is tied to 340B  and currently sits in House Rules Committee.  
  • Signed! Senate Bill 0046 regarding protections for medical cannabis patients made it through the House and Senate and was signed this week.
  • Watch! We recommend members keep an eye on House Bill 301- this bill is tied to dispensing medical practitioner(s) and dispensing medical practitioner clinic pharmacies and currently awaiting discussion in the House Health and Human Services Committee.
