Passed

Well a good day for Arizona pharmacy today:

SB1298 passed the Senate which allows (1) the pharmacist can modify prescriptions if working in conjunction with either a physician or nurse practitioner (2) the pharmacist to administer influenza vaccines to children 6-17 without a prescription or if a state of health emergency is declared by the state Governor and (3) student interns can administer vaccines if certified and under supervision of certified pharmacists.

Now it just remains to pass the House.
