How does a pharmacist request Board approval (the 6th option for qualification or authorization) to participate in drug therapy management by protocol?
The pharmacist should submit to the Board a written request addressing the following criteria: any additional training or education that would qualify the pharmacist to participate in a drug therapy management protocol, including continuing education courses in related topics; any past experience working in collaboration with prescribers in the area requested; evidence of the pharmacist’s approval or certification as a pharmacy residency program director or preceptor; a history of the pharmacist’s license or practice relevant to the therapy requested; and any other information the pharmacist believes may assist the Board in determining the pharmacist’s qualification to participate in drug therapy management by protocol. Requests for Board approval must be received three weeks prior to a scheduled Board meeting to avoid delays.
