Watch as Governor Dunleavy signed HB145 into law on June 30th at Bernie’s Pharmacy. HB145 ensures that pharmacists will be get reimbursed for their non-dispensing patient care services! The law includes several technical fixes that clearly define pharmacists’ scope of practice including; independent prescribing of vaccines and opioid reversal medications, management of chronic diseases, and ordering laboratory tests. Under the new law pharmacy technicians will be allowed to continue administering immunizations after the federal PREP Act authority ends. The Board of Pharmacy will be promulgating regulations regarding the law and AKPhA will be a key stakeholder in the process.
