Description

Inspections of nonresident pharmacies seeking registration to conduct business in the Commonwealth. Deems an inspection report submitted by a nonresident pharmacy to be current if the inspection was conducted within the past five years. However, if the nonresident pharmacy has not been inspected by the regulatory or licensing agency of the jurisdiction in which it is licensed within the past five years, the Board may accept an inspection report or other documentation from another entity that is satisfactory to the Board or the Board may cause an inspection to be conducted by its duly authorized agent and may charge an inspection fee in an amount sufficient to cover the costs of the inspection. Technical amendments clarify that the nonresident pharmacy must disclose that it maintains a current unrestricted license in its home jurisdiction. Read the Bill »
