Bill > HB4047

This bill establishes new regulations for medical spas in Arizona, defining them as facilities offering medical or cosmetic health care services that require a license under this new article, excluding those already licensed by the state. Key provisions include requiring medical spas that handle prescription medications to obtain a license from the Arizona State Board of Pharmacy, which will maintain a public database of licensed facilities and their responsible persons. The bill outlines requirements for the acquisition, storage, and security of prescription medications, emphasizing compliance with federal regulations for dispensers. It mandates a designated "responsible person," a licensed healthcare provider, to oversee compliance at each medical spa, though one person may be responsible for multiple locations. Furthermore, medical spas must report serious adverse events, defined as outcomes like death, life-threatening situations, or significant incapacitation, to the board within five business days. The bill also addresses deceptive trade practices related to prescription medications and grants the board authority to investigate violations, take disciplinary actions, and adopt necessary rules to implement and enforce these provisions.
