ELECTRONIC PRESCRIPTIONS

Summary

The bill changes state law so that Schedule II drug prescriptions can be transferred only once and cannot be passed on again, aligning with federal regulations. It also says doctors don’t have to use electronic prescriptions when patients need medication outside normal pharmacy hours or when drug shortages make it hard to obtain the drug. The changes aim to improve safety and give prescribers flexibility.
