If you’re licensed in NY State, you may want to be aware of this
As you know, New York currently ONLY allows technicians to compound in an Article 28 facility and requires pharmacists to directly supervise, in the immediate area, any pharmacy technicians who are compounding. Technicians can NOT compound in any other practice setting.
What you may not know is that companion bills (S 1050a and A 8115a) have been introduced in the state legislature that would correct this, making it much easier for technicians to participate in compounding in ALL practice settings.
There is a compounder town hall to discuss advocacy strategies for the bills next Thursday, February 29 at 11am ET. You can join the call here.
