Board reviews draft rule chapters on kiosks, centralized services and record retention; asks staff for more information
Summary
The Board reviewed draft basis statements and responses for proposed rule chapters: Chapter 1 (Definitions), Chapter 20-A (Self-Service Customer Kiosks), Chapter 21 (Centralized Pharmacy Services), and Chapter 24 (Retention of Records by Pharmacies), and requested additional information and a follow-up agenda item.
The Maine Board of Pharmacy reviewed draft rule language and public comments related to four proposed chapters at the March 5 meeting. The specific chapters under discussion were Chapter 1 (Definitions), Chapter 20-A (Self-Service Customer Kiosks), Chapter 21 (Centralized Pharmacy Services), and Chapter 24 (Retention of Records by Pharmacies).
After reviewing draft basis statements and responses, the Board requested further information from staff and asked that the item be returned for more discussion at the next meeting. The minutes record that draft rules and comments were reviewed and discussed; no final action or adoption occurred during this session.
Next steps: staff will gather the requested information and the Board will continue consideration of the draft rules at a subsequent meeting.
