Senate passes bill requiring pharmacy accessibility options for blind and visually impaired Iowans

Senator Warmie described House File 2585 as a statute that will allow blind and visually impaired Iowans greater independence and privacy when filling prescriptions. He said the bill directs the Board of Pharmacy to set rules and maintain a list of pharmacies that can accommodate new technologies for accessible prescriptions; pharmacies that lack the technology must provide a referral list to patients who need the service.
