Proposed Regulation

Title of Regulation: 18VAC110-20. Regulations Governing the Practice of Pharmacy (amending 18VAC110-20-10, 18VAC110-20-400; adding 18VAC110-20-740 through 18VAC110-20-800).

Statutory Authority: § 54.1-2400 of the Code of Virginia.

Public Hearing Information:

December 16, 2009 - 9 a.m. - Department of Health Professions, Perimeter Center, 9960 Mayland Drive, 2nd Floor, Richmond, VA

Public Comment Deadline: January 22, 2010.

Agency Contact: Elizabeth Scott Russell, RPh, Executive Director, Board of Pharmacy, 9960 Mayland Drive, Suite 300, Richmond, VA 23233-1463, telephone (804) 367-4456, FAX (804) 527-4472, or email scotti.russell@dhp.virginia.gov.

Basis: Section 54.1-2400 of the Code of Virginia provides the Board of Pharmacy the authority to promulgate regulations to administer the regulatory system. Section 54.1-3411.1 of the Code of Virginia provides the board with authority to promulgate regulations to establish a drug donation program.

Purpose: The purpose of the regulatory action is to comply with a state legislative mandate to promulgate regulations for the establishment of a Prescription Drug Donation Program. Requirements for eligible drugs must comply with Virginia law and the federal Drug Enforcement Administration, so the applicability of the program is inherently limited. Given that limitation, the board has proposed a program that allows for participation without unnecessary expense or burdensome reporting. At the same time, there must be safeguards for the security and efficacy of the drugs that will be redispensed to a patient of a free clinic.

The need for a drug donation program has been recognized in other states where such programs are being introduced. For example, Iowa reports that for the time period from March 2007 through December 2007, the drug donation repository received almost 319,000 dosage units worth an estimated $150,000 to program participants who might otherwise not be able to get needed medication. The challenge is to balance the desire to make unused drugs available with the necessity for safety and the limitations on the types of drugs eligible for donation.

As stated above, state and federal law currently limits donation of Schedule II through V drugs; only Schedule VI drugs where official compendium storage requirements are assured and the drugs are in manufacturers' original sealed containers or in sealed individual dose or unit dose packaging that meets official compendium class A or B container requirements are eligible. Additionally, drugs that are restricted in distribution, have an expiration date of less than 90 days from donation, or may be considered hazardous cannot be donated and redispensed.

It is the responsibility of the pharmacist or pharmacy technician at the donation site to screen drugs for eligibility and to obtain a donor form with contact information and other assurances of proper storage and voluntary donation. The donated drug is thereby tracked from donation to transfer to redispensing in order to have a record that ensures compliance with requirements for the program and provides vital information in case of a drug recall or other subsequent issue. While there is some risk with a system in which consumers donate drugs that have been in their possession for redispensing to other patients, the board has included all safeguards necessary to ensure that the risk is minimal. Procedures for collecting donated drugs, storage of such drugs, maintenance of records, destruction of any unused drugs and redispensing to patients with valid prescriptions are intended to protect public health and safety within the parameters of a donation program that can be implemented for the public welfare.

Substance: Regulations promulgated pursuant to the legislative mandate set forth requirements for pharmacies that want to register as a drug donation site; criteria for drugs eligible for donation; procedures for collecting donated drugs, including specification of information on a donor form for each drug donated; procedures for transferring and redispensing donated drugs; procedures for disposing of any unused donated drugs; and recordkeeping requirements associated with the program.

Issues: The primary advantage of the establishment of a drug donation program is the possibility of an increase in the amount of donated drugs available to persons who utilize free clinics for health care. Additionally, drugs that are donated do not create disposal issues for the water supply or landfills. There are no disadvantages since the criteria for drugs that may be donated to the program are designed to limit the possibility of contamination or adulteration and limit the category to drugs that have no potential for abuse. There are no advantages or disadvantages to the agency or the Commonwealth.

The Department of Planning and Budget's Economic Impact Analysis:

Summary of the Proposed Amendments to Regulation. Pursuant to Chapter 429 (HB85) of the 2008 Acts of the Assembly, the Board of Pharmacy proposes to establish a prescription drug donation program. The proposed program has been in effect since April 10, 2009, under emergency regulations.

Result of Analysis. The benefits likely exceed the costs for all proposed changes.

Estimated Economic Impact. Pursuant to Chapter 429 (HB85) of the 2008 Acts of the Assembly, the Board of Pharmacy proposes to establish a prescription drug donation program. The program allows participating pharmacies to accept previously dispensed unused drugs that meet certain criteria and transfer them to free clinics for re-dispensing. Due to restrictions imposed by the Federal Drug Enforcement Administration, only Schedule VI drugs are eligible for the program.

Participating pharmacies are expected to incur some additional costs associated with screening drugs for eligibility, recordkeeping, storage, and possibly transfer to free clinics. However, participation is completely voluntary. Thus, we can reliably infer that the benefits to participating pharmacies should exceed the costs of participation.

Also, the program is expected generate some savings to free clinics in terms of the free drugs donated which can be re-dispensed and benefit the individuals who are receiving services. There is no readily available estimate for the magnitude of the drugs that may be donated. However, the participation may be somewhat limited. Since April 2009, no pharmacies in Virginia have applied to participate in the program. Moreover, about 319,000 dosage units worth approximately $150,000 were received through a similar program in Iowa between March 2007 and December 2007.

Two of the potential costs include health risks to the consumers and the board's administrative costs involved in monitoring the program. According to the Department of Health Professions, the board included all safeguards necessary to ensure that the risk is minimal. Also, the department does not expect any significant costs to administer this program which is expected to have a limited participation.

Businesses and Entities Affected. There are 1,647 pharmacies and 18 free clinics that could participate in the proposed program. Participation is completely voluntary and is expected to be limited.

Localities Particularly Affected. The proposed regulations apply throughout the Commonwealth.

Projected Impact on Employment. No significant impact is expected on employment.

Effects on the Use and Value of Private Property. No significant impact is expected on the use and value of private property.

Small Businesses: Costs and Other Effects. No significant costs and other effects are expected on small businesses.

Small Businesses: Alternative Method that Minimizes Adverse Impact. No adverse impact is expected on small businesses.

Real Estate Development Costs. No adverse impact is expected on real estate development costs.

Legal Mandate. The Department of Planning and Budget (DPB) has analyzed the economic impact of this proposed regulation in accordance with § 2.2-4007.04 of the Administrative Process Act and Executive Order Number 36 (06). Section 2.2-4007.04 requires that such economic impact analyses include, but need not be limited to, the projected number of businesses or other entities to whom the regulation would apply, the identity of any localities and types of businesses or other entities particularly affected, the projected number of persons and employment positions to be affected, the projected costs to affected businesses or entities to implement or comply with the regulation, and the impact on the use and value of private property. Further, if the proposed regulation has adverse effect on small businesses, § 2.2-4007.04 requires that such economic impact analyses include (i) an identification and estimate of the number of small businesses subject to the regulation; (ii) the projected reporting, recordkeeping, and other administrative costs required for small businesses to comply with the regulation, including the type of professional skills necessary for preparing required reports and other documents; (iii) a statement of the probable effect of the regulation on affected small businesses; and (iv) a description of any less intrusive or less costly alternative methods of achieving the purpose of the regulation. The analysis presented above represents DPB's best estimate of these economic impacts.

Agency's Response to the Department of Planning and Budget's Economic Impact Analysis: The Board of Pharmacy concurs with the economic impact analysis of the Department of Planning and Budget on proposed regulations for the drug donation program.

Summary:

Pursuant to Chapter 429 of the 2008 Acts of Assembly, the Board of Pharmacy proposes to establish a prescription drug donation program. The proposed regulations set forth requirements for pharmacies to register as a drug donation site; criteria for drugs eligible for donation; procedures for collecting donated drugs, including specification of information on a donor form for each drug donated; procedures for transferring and redispensing donated drugs; procedures for disposing of any unused donated drugs; and recordkeeping requirements associated with the program.
