Notify boards about pharmacist care agreements

At the start of an agreement, and whenever parties or protocols change, the pharmacist must notify the Board of Pharmacy and the board that licensed the practitioner. Each notice must list every pharmacist and every participating prescriber or physician assistant and describe the therapy monitored or started. The agreement and its written protocols must be in writing and kept available for department review. The Board of Pharmacy can require a copy of the agreement.

Pharmacists and PAs can sign care agreements

The law lets pharmacists enter written practice agreements with physician assistants who prescribe under a collaborative agreement and with licensed prescribers who can prescribe on their own. Care is delivered under written protocols. All listed parties must sign to activate the agreement and must review, sign, and date it every two years. If a physician assistant prescribes under a collaborative agreement, the supervising physician must also sign. The agreement ends if a party dies, loses a license, is disciplined, or anyone ends it. A pharmacist intern can participate if supervised by a pharmacist party, without being named in the agreement.
