HB 2244 Kansas House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Modifying the composition of the board of pharmacy and prohibiting the board of pharmacy from adopting rules and regulations that would limit or condition the use of telepharmacy.

HB 2244 modifies Kansas' pharmacy board composition and prohibits the board from restricting telepharmacy use. It requires the board to include three pharmacist types (community, chain pharmacy, specialty/mail-order) plus a public member, and explicitly bans rules limiting telepharmacy based on population, distance from physical pharmacies, or network adequacy. The bill defines telepharmacy as remote pharmacist services using technology for real-time patient care and counseling at registered locations. These changes directly affect pharmacists, telepharmacy providers, and patients seeking remote pharmacy services across Kansas.
