Bill Summary

Allows certain health care practitioners referrals to pharmacies to be made in accordance with certain professional standards.

AI Summary

This bill allows certain health care practitioners to continue referring patients to pharmacies in which the practitioner or their immediate family has a significant beneficial interest, provided the pharmacy is integrated with an oncology practice, only dispenses medications exclusively to patients of that practice, and meets additional requirements set forth in the bill. The bill also includes exceptions to the general prohibition on such referrals, such as for renal dialysis, certain ambulatory surgery procedures, and referrals made as part of alternative payment models. The bill aims to provide more flexibility for health care practitioners in making pharmacy referrals while still maintaining certain safeguards and professional standards.
