Wisconsin drug repository program
Under current law, DHS is required to maintain a drug repository program under which persons may donate certain drugs or supplies that may be used by other individuals identified by the department by rule. This bill allows DHS to partner with out-of-state drug repository programs. This bill also allows out-of-state persons to donate to the drug repository program in Wisconsin, and persons in Wisconsin to donate to participating drug repository programs in other states. Further, this bill directs DHS to study and implement a centralized physical drug repository program.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do enact as follows:
