Minnesota Board Adopts Definition of Limited Service Pharmacy
The Minnesota Board of Pharmacy adopted a definition of limited service pharmacy, which reads “A pharmacy to which the board may assign a restricted license to perform a narrow range of the activities that constitute the practice of pharmacy.”
Currently, there are several different scenarios for which a limited service pharmacy license might be appropriate. For example, the Board has received inquiries from pharmacists who want to open an office at which they will perform vaccinations and conduct medication therapy management. These pharmacists do not intend to fill prescriptions at these offices and therefore do not need to purchase or store drugs. The Board notes that issuing a limited service pharmacy license to such an office may help the pharmacists obtain reimbursement from third-party payers that require such services to be performed in a licensed pharmacy.
