Summary:
HB 2438 provides that a licensed pharmacist may initiate emergency contraception drug therapy management in accordance with written, standardized procedures or protocols developed by a physician registered with the commissioner to distribute or dispense a controlled substance in the course of professional practice, provided that such procedures or protocols are filed at the pharmacists place of practice and with the board of registration of pharmacy before implementation. Prior to initiating pharmacy emergency contraception drug therapy management authorized under this section, a pharmacist must have completed a training program approved by the commissioner on emergency contraception, which training includes but is not limited to quality assurance, referral to additional services and documentation. The bill requires the Department of Public Health to promulgate regulations regarding the implementation of this section.
