Ohio News: Physician Assistant Prescribing
Published in the August 2007 Ohio State Board of Pharmacy Newsletter
At the current time, it appears that physician assistant (PA) prescribing will begin some time this fall. The State Medical Board of Ohio is in the process of finalizing the rules needed to implement the process. Once the rules are finished and the Medical Board sets the implementation date, the process of licensing PAs to prescribe will begin. Until that time, PAs may not prescribe drugs. Information on licensing of PAs should be available on the Medical Board’s Web site at www.med.ohio.gov once the process begins.
