MEMORANDUM

Posted: December 12, 2014 02:35 PM
From: Senator John C. Rafferty, Jr.
To: All Senate members
Subject: Pharmacy Technician Requirements
 
I will be re-introducing legislation, SB 574, specifically targeting the growing problem of prescription drug diversion.

This legislation defines individuals who assist pharmacists as “pharmacy technicians” and requires pharmacy technicians to register annually with the State Board of Pharmacy and be required to submit a criminal history background check. This legislation also provides that pharmacy technicians must complete a board-approved training program for pharmacy technicians and also be at least 17 years of age.

Introduced as SB456
