Resolution No. 106-1-10
Title: Support of Multistate Licensure Concept Study
Action: Pass

Whereas, the practice of pharmacy is defined by state practice acts and regulations and founded in state licensure; and

Whereas, the practice of pharmacy encompasses the provision of pharmacist care to patients; and

Whereas, the practice of pharmacy and provision of pharmacist care is extending beyond traditional boundaries requiring new regulatory strategies and tools;

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the state boards of pharmacy support efforts by NABP to study the concept of multistate licensure as a regulatory framework to facilitate the practice of pharmacy and provision of patient care services across state lines and to assist the state boards of pharmacy in their efforts to regulate new practice models and settings.
