AI Summary

This bill amends Arizona law to allow the Arizona State Board of Pharmacy to issue nondisciplinary civil penalties, which are fines that do not result in disciplinary action against a licensee, registrant, or permittee. These penalties, which can be up to $25,000 in any six-month period, can be imposed for certain violations that do not pose an immediate threat to public health and safety, such as failing to submit a remodel application before remodeling a pharmacy, not notifying the board of a business relocation, or not updating online profiles with changes in contact information or employment within specified timeframes. The bill also clarifies that for permittees not directly performing patient care, civil penalties for unethical conduct may not exceed $25,000 in any six-month period.
