In a letter submitted on June 19th , NACDS and the Colorado Retailers Association urges Gov. Jared Polis to sign into law HB20-1061, legislation increasing access to care by authorizing pharmacists to prescribe and dispense Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) prevention medication to patients. 

Also in Colorado... NACDS met with the Department of Regulatory Agencies (DORA) to provide additional information on statutes and rules related to the modernization of the practice of pharmacy, responding to questions raised regarding the alignment of Colorado state law with the federal Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA) and the non-discretionary duties of pharmacy technicians.
