Bill > SB322

This bill removes the authority of the State Board of Pharmacy to allow individuals to access the prescription monitoring program database through its own rules and regulations, specifically by deleting a provision that permitted the board to authorize access for individuals as delegates. The prescription monitoring program (PMP) is a system designed to track the dispensing of controlled substances and drugs of concern to help prevent abuse and diversion. Previously, the board could establish rules to grant access to certain individuals, such as death investigators, as delegates to access this sensitive data. This bill amends the existing law, K.S.A. 2025 Supp. 65-1682, to remove this specific power of the board, thereby restricting who can be authorized to access the database.
