Analysis prepared by the Dept. of Regulation and Licensing.
Statutes authorizing promulgation: ss. 15.08 (5) (b), 227.11 (2), 450.02 (2g) (a) and (3) (e), 450.03 (2) and 450.04 (1)
Statutes interpreted: ss. 450.02 (2g) (a), (3) (e), 450.03 (2) and 450.04 (1)
The objective of the proposed amendment of ss. Phar 2.03 (1), 2.06 (1) and (4), 4.02 (5) and (6) and 16.02 is to remove the consultation requirement from the examination for licensure for all applicants and to instead require consultation programs as a part of continuing education. Currently, an applicant for original licensure in this state and pharmacists licensed in another state seeking licensure in this state must successfully pass an examination pertaining to the consultation of patients.
The object of the proposed repeal of ss. Phar 2.06 (2) and (3) and 4.02 (3) and (4), relating to the active practice of pharmacy, equivalency examinations, practice of pharmacy examination, and laboratory practical examination is to provide consistent licensure requirements between applicants licensed in another state and residents of this state seeking original licensure.
The object of amending ss. Phar 12.03 (2) (d) and (e) and 13.05 (2) is to remove a federal citation date which no longer applies.
Section Phar 2.03 (1) is amended to remove a reference to an examination that is no longer required.
Text of Rule
SECTION 1. Phar 2.03 (1) is amended to read:
Phar 2.03 (1) An applicant for original licensure as a pharmacist is required to pass the examinations identified in s. Phar 4.02 (1)
, (4) and (5) (2).
SECTION 2. Phar 2.06 (1) (title) is repealed.
SECTION 3. Phar 2.06 (1) is amended to read:
Phar 2.06 Examinations for persons licensed in another state. (1) An applicant licensed as a pharmacist in another state who is engaged in the active practice of pharmacy, shall take the multi-state pharmacy jurisprudence examination described in s. Phar 4.02 (1)
, and the patient consultation portion of the laboratory practical examination described in s. Phar 4.02 (4). The applicant shall submit , on forms furnished by the board, information describing his or her practice experience preceding the filing of the application. The board shall may review requests for reciprocity.
SECTION 4. Phar 2.06 (2) and (3) are repealed.
SECTION 5. Phar 4.02 (3) and (4) are repealed.
SECTION 6. Phar 12.03 (2) (d) and (e) are amended to read:
Phar 12.03 (2) (d) Register with the food and drug administration and comply with all applicable requirements of 21 CFR 200, 201, 202, 207, 210 and 211 (1985).
(e) If applicable, register with the drug enforcement administration and comply with all appropriate requirements of 21 CFR 1301, 1302, 1303, 1304, 1305, 1307, 1311 and 1312 (1985)
.
SECTION 7. Phar 13.05 (2) is amended to read:
Phar 13.05 (2) Pass an inspection of the facility conducted by the board or its representative to determine if the location meets standards specified in Phar 13.08 to 13.11, 21 USC 351 and 352 (1990) and 21 CFR 211.142 (b) (1991).
SECTION 8. Phar 16.02 (1) is amended to read:
Phar 16.02 (1) Each pharmacist required to complete the continuing education requirement provided under s. 450.085, Stats., shall, at the time of making application for renewal of a license under s. 450.08 (2) (a), Stats., sign a statement on the application for renewal certifying that the pharmacist has completed at least 30 hours of acceptable continuing education programs within the 2-year period immediately preceding the date of his or her application for renewal. The board may require that not more than 15 continuing education hours in each 2-year period immediately preceding the date of the application for renewal be acquired within specified topic areas, such requirement to first apply to applications that are submitted to the department to renew a license to practice pharmacy that expires on June 1, 2004. The 30 hours of continuing education for pharmacists first applies to applications that are submitted to the department to renew a license to practice pharmacy that expires on June 1, 2000. This subsection does not apply to an application for renewal of a license that expires on the first renewal date after the date on which the board initially granted the license.
Fiscal Estimate
This rule would have revenue and expense impact if passed. There would be revenue decreased by $72,352, which is based on 272 candidates at $266 per patient consultant examination. The annual budgeted expenses for the pharmacy practical is $5870. These lost revenues would be recovered by increasing the written test fees for the pharmacy examination. There is no local fiscal impact.
Initial Regulatory Flexibility Analysis
These proposed rules will be reviewed by the department through its Small Business Review Advisory Committee to determine whether there will be an economic impact on a substantial number of small businesses, as defined in s. 227.114 (1) (a), Stats.

SFC 1.05 (7) An applicant for certification as a social worker, advanced practice social worker, independent social worker, independent clinical social worker, marriage and family therapist, or professional counselor need not take part II of the examination if within the 5 years preceding the date of application, the applicant took and passed part II in the process of applying for and receiving another certification from the board.
