HB 2312 West Virginia House of Delegates · 2025 Regular Session

Relating to authorizing the Board of Pharmacy to promulgate a legislative rule relating to licensure and practice of pharmacy

HB 2312 authorizes the West Virginia Board of Pharmacy to implement and enforce its existing rule (15 CSR 01) governing pharmacy licensure and practice. This procedural bill formally incorporates the Board's developed rule - previously modified after legislative review - into state code, making it official. It directly affects pharmacists, pharmacies, and pharmacy technicians by establishing standardized requirements for licensure, practice, and continuing education. The rule, filed in 2024 and revised after committee feedback, clarifies how pharmacists must meet state standards. No new policy changes are created; the bill simply validates the Board's previously drafted rule.
