AI Summary
This bill amends the Illinois Clinical Laboratory and Blood Bank Act, the Illinois Insurance Code, and the Pharmacy Practice Act to expand the scope of practice for pharmacists. The key provisions are:
1. Allowing pharmacists to order and perform laboratory tests, assessments, and consultations for HIV pre-exposure and post-exposure prophylaxis, in addition to the existing allowances for pharmacists to provide hormonal contraceptives.
2. Requiring health insurance plans to provide coverage for patient care services provided by pharmacists for HIV prophylaxis, if the same services are covered when provided by a physician, advanced practice registered nurse, or physician assistant.
3. Establishing a reimbursement rate for Medicaid to cover pharmacist-provided services for HIV prophylaxis at 85% of the rate for physician-provided services.
4. Allowing pharmacists to initiate, dispense, or administer drugs, laboratory tests, assessments, referrals, and consultations for HIV pre-exposure and post-exposure prophylaxis under a standing order from a physician or county/local health department medical director.
The bill aims to expand pharmacists' scope of practice and improve access to HIV prevention services.
