Resolution Number: 103-6-07
Title: Clearinghouse for Pharmacies
Action: Passed

Whereas, pharmacies frequently serve patients in multiple states; and

Whereas, pharmacies may be operating without appropriate licensure within the state in which the patient resides and may also be circumventing non-resident pharmacy requirements; and

Whereas, there is presently no convenient or comprehensive means of verifying information provided by pharmacy licensure applicants;

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that NABP evaluate the feasibility of expanding the NABP Clearinghouse to provide for a complete pharmacy licensure and disciplinary history to assist boards in determining eligibility for licensure; and

THEREFORE BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that NABP encourages its member boards to actively report in a timely manner pharmacy licensure and disciplinary information to the NABP Clearinghouse.
