Enhances transparency in the prescription drug supply chain

Summary

The bill mandates that when a prescription is dispensed, pharmacies must provide patients with clear information about where the drug and its ingredients were made, the manufacturers, and any packers or distributors. It also obliges pharmacy benefit managers to keep this supply‑chain data available in a standardized electronic format and directs the health commissioner to set up a public online portal for patients to access the information. The goal is to improve patient confidence and accountability in a globalized drug market.
