Section 689.702 - Access to pharmacy electronic database; rules.
(1) A pharmacist, pharmacy technician or intern, or an individual similarly licensed or otherwise authorized by another state, who is contracted or employed by a pharmacy may access the pharmacy’s electronic database regardless of whether the pharmacist, pharmacy technician or intern or other individual described in this subsection is physically located inside the pharmacy if:
(a) The pharmacy has established standards and controls to protect the confidentiality and integrity of any patient information contained in the electronic database when the electronic database is accessed from inside the pharmacy or remotely; and
(b) No information from the electronic database is duplicated, downloaded or removed from the electronic database when the electronic database is accessed remotely.
(2) The State Board of Pharmacy may adopt rules to carry out this section. In adopting rules under this subsection, the board may not establish standards for the remote access of a pharmacy’s electronic database that are more restrictive than standards for accessing the electronic database from inside the pharmacy. This subsection may not be construed to limit the authority of the board to adopt rules to require compliance with any applicable federal law. [2022 c.45 §18]
