The Board of Pharmacy issued a Notice of Supplemental Proposed Rulemaking 4 AAC 23 related to pharmacist delegation/technician rules; see pages 339-343. A public hearing has been scheduled for March 9 at 9:00 a.m. (local time). Please note the current proposal excludes a pharmacist’s delegation of vaccine administration by a technician which was the issue of concern in the former rules package. Please recall the technician rules package was removed from the Governor’s Regulatory Review Council’s December 2021 agenda prior to the meeting by the Board of Pharmacy over concerns expressed about technician vaccine administration.
