SC: The Next Battleground

// February 19th, 2009 // Pharmacy Regulations, Pharmacy Technician

House Bill 3394 has been introduced in the South Carolina State Legislature to enhance the regulations and requirements to practice as a pharmacy technician.

The South Carolina Society of Health-System Pharmacists, which assisted in drafting the legislation, is in full support, whereas the South Carolina Pharmacy Association intends to see the bill overturned.

NPTA has been invited to review the current draft of the legislation and participate in upcoming House Subcomittee Hearings; it appears that South Carolina has become the next battleground for NPTA and pharmacy technicians.
