AI Summary

This bill requires the Board of Pharmacy to collaborate with the Virginia Department of Health and the Office of Emergency Medical Services to produce a detailed report on how emergency medical services (EMS) agencies are adapting to two significant federal laws: the Drug Supply Chain Security Act and the Protecting Patient Access to Emergency Medications Act. The report must specifically address the progress EMS agencies are making in implementing new pharmacy practices that replace the traditional hospital drug box exchange program, as established by Board regulations and Drug Enforcement Agency requirements. By November 1, 2025, the Board must submit this comprehensive report to key state leadership, including the Governor, the Secretary of Health and Human Resources, and the Chairmen of relevant Senate and House committees. This requirement aims to provide transparency and accountability in how EMS agencies are modernizing their medication management and supply chain practices in compliance with updated federal regulations.
