Bill > SF0121

This bill amends the Wyoming Pharmacy Act to expand the definition of the "practice of pharmacy" to include interpreting and administering medical orders or prescriptions, providing patient counseling, assessing patients for drug prescribing under board rules, and initiating pharmacist care services, all while clarifying that pharmacists are not required to participate in collaborative pharmaceutical care agreements and that employers cannot discriminate against those who decline. Additionally, it lowers the minimum age for patients to whom a pharmacist can administer immunizations from seven to three years old, though parental consent is still required for minors, and requires pharmacists to record immunizations in the state registry, with no pharmacist being compelled to immunize children under thirteen. The bill also mandates that the board of pharmacy create necessary rules to implement these changes, with most provisions taking effect on July 1, 2026, and the rule-making and effective date sections becoming law immediately.
