Statutes Amended In Order of Appearance

Synopsis As Introduced

Amends the Wholesale Drug Distribution Licensing Act. In provisions concerning restrictions on transactions, provides that prescription drugs furnished by a manufacturer or wholesale distributor licensed under the Act may be delivered only to the business address of a licensee registered with the Department of Financial and Professional Regulation, to the premises listed on a license, or, if the Department has received notice that the licensee has authorized a health care entity to receive the prescription drugs, to the address of a health care entity (instead of only to the premises listed on the license). Provides that "health care entity" means an entity where medical, dental, or veterinary services are provided by a licensed practitioner and where the licensed practitioner is responsible for the receipt, storage, and use of drugs.
