As the New York State Legislature considers the Executive budget proposal, NACDS has issued a memo in support of a budget proposal that would expand pharmacists’ authority to immunize. In addition, NACDS submitted testimony in support of key pharmacy provisions in the budget and urging the legislature to not delay the transition of pharmacy benefits from Managed Care to Fee for Service. As a reminder the budget must be finalized by April 1, 2021.
